Event to 'Burn and Release' Tedious HR Tasks Decided! / August 28 (Fri) HR Networking Event 'Jinji-ru Bu' Co-hosted with HERP Inc.!

HR work isn't that glamorous.

While fancy jargon like 'employer branding' and 'engagement' flies around, HR is surprisingly a gritty job.

And above all, it's busy.

The scope to cover is so wide,

Before you know it, the day is over. But you're not sure what you accomplished.

- Scheduling interviews with interviewers

- Checking for incomplete new hire paperwork

- Scheduling interviews with interviewers (2nd time)

- Responding to sudden consultations from employees

- Scheduling interviews with interviewers (3rd time)

- Handling a series of resignation procedures

...etc.

Before you know it, you're spread 'wide and thin,' and you can't get to your core tasks.

Each task is minor, but they pile up as essential chores that can't be ignored.

At the HR networking event on August 28 (Fri), we plan to 'burn and release' these 'tedious and difficult tasks.' Let's write down the tasks that don't require our utmost sincerity on strips of paper and burn them while glaring at them.

'O-takibi' (offering by fire) is originally a ritual to burn and consecrate cherished items with gratitude when letting them go.

Our concept is not just to vent by burning things, but to truly let go of tasks and find relief.

- So, how can we truly let go?

- What methods and systems do other companies use to solve these issues?

- What are the real challenges in the first place?

We are planning a workshop where HR professionals can discuss these topics.

Once you see a path or gain confidence in letting go, it's time for the 'o-takibi.' The order of letting go and burning is reversed, and while it's a bit of a premature start, this can truly be called an 'o-takibi.'

HERP Inc. and Labor and Social Security Attorneys will also provide tailwinds for the 'o-takibi.'

This 'Jinji-ru Bu' event is co-hosted with HERP Inc., an HR tech company that develops and provides the recruitment management system 'HERP Hire.' From the perspective of professionals with the latest information and knowledge, they will support the 'o-takibi' by demonstrating how much HR can be simplified through the use of AI and SaaS.

Furthermore, Sae Wakita, the representative labor and social security attorney at NOVEL HR Partners, will also light the candles. She will offer advice and support for your concerns not only from a recruitment perspective but also from the viewpoint of labor and operational improvements.

However, the main focus of 'Jinji-ru Bu' remains on the HR professionals themselves. It is a place where each ambitious HR professional can face challenges proactively and take home hints applicable to their practical work.
