The material issues of the PERSOL Group are largely divided into two categories. One category is related to “solving social issues through our business”. We have selected the following issues to be solved through our services for individuals and corporate customers: creating work opportunities, providing diverse work styles, providing learning opportunities, and increasing productivity at companies.
Of the eight material issues, we have positioned creating work opportunities as the most important issue because it is closely related to the PERSOL Group's value creation goal: creating good work opportunities for one million people by 2030 by increasing the potential of personnel. We have positioned providing diverse work styles (increasing opportunities by offering many options) and providing learning opportunities (increasing opportunities by expanding capabilities) as elements that are necessary to create work opportunities. In addition, we are aware that increasing productivity will lead to the creation of more opportunities for individuals to demonstrate their capabilities, not to mention that it will help streamline corporate activities and end the labor shortage. In other words, we believe that increasing productivity will lead to the creation of better work opportunities
By 2030, we will create better work opportunities by expanding the potential of one million workers, using our strengths in matching people with organizations, attracting customers and designing operations.
