Sharedine Co., Ltd. (HQ: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Hikari Iida) will host a free online seminar titled "Risk if You Don't Know! Practical Responses to the Freelance Protection Act for the Restaurant Industry" on Monday, April 27, 2026, at 15:00. In restaurant settings facing severe labor shortages, the reliance on individual freelancers for cooking and menu development is rapidly increasing. However, if store managers complete orders via regular LINE messages or verbal agreements, it constitutes a clear legal violation. This webinar aims to answer the question, "What exactly should we manage in restaurant practice?" by extracting essential response points. It provides owners of independent shops and HR/General Affairs departments of multi-unit enterprises with information on how to create correct rules for safe transactions with external partners and maintain compliance.
