Developing Higher-Value Personnel Through Technical and Interpersonal Skills Training

「This focus on training directly increased the market value of engineers, resulting in dispatch rates rising 4.4% year on year.」

「As we expect to conduct advanced training for newly graduated engineers, promote strategic upskilling, strengthen measures to secure personnel including higher engineer compensation, and incur the selling, general and administrative expenses whose timing was deferred as described above from the third quarter of the current consolidated fiscal year onward, we will leave the full-year consolidated earnings forecasts unchanged at this time.」

「In the dispatch business, demand for engineers remained solid among our major customers, IT-related companies and domestic manufacturers, where the chronic shortage of engineers remained unchanged. Under these circumstances, we continuously worked to increase the value added by engineers through training and other measures.」

「Under these circumstances, we continuously worked to increase the value added by engineers through training and other measures, resulting in dispatch rates rising 3.6% year on year.」

「Under these circumstances, we continuously worked to increase the value added by engineers through training and other measures, resulting in higher dispatch rates.」

「We continuously worked to increase the value added by engineers through training and other measures, resulting in higher dispatch rates. In addition, to address recent inflation and secure human resources, we proactively raised engineers' compensation levels.」

「In the dispatch business, demand for engineers remained solid among our major customers, domestic manufacturers and IT-related companies, where the chronic shortage of engineers remained unchanged. Under these circumstances, we continuously worked to increase the value added by engineers through training and other measures, resulting in higher dispatch rates. In addition, as in the previous fiscal year, we pursued active recruitment by strengthening our recruitment structure through increased staffing and other measures, and strengthening corporate branding initiatives. The number of engineers employed increased, as did the number in operation. As a result, the utilization rate remained high, at the same level as in the same period of the previous year. We also continuously strengthened the IT field, resulting in increases in both IT sales and the IT share of sales.」

「To increase the value added by engineers, we will promote growth in cutting-edge IT fields by enhancing and strengthening training programs in cutting-edge fields such as AR/VR and AI, while focusing on strengthening initiatives targeting the automotive industry as it shifts toward EVs, thereby seeking to increase sales per engineer.」

「In addition, we continuously strengthened the IT field, resulting in increases in both IT sales and the IT share of sales.」

「In addition, we continuously worked to increase the value added by technical employees through training and other measures, and worked to improve dispatch rates.」

「The engineer dispatch business worked to improve dispatch rates by strengthening initiatives in the IT and growth-industry fields.」

「In addition to an increase in the number of engineers employed compared with the same period of the previous year, the engineer dispatch business worked to improve dispatch rates by strengthening initiatives in the IT and growth-industry fields.」

「Under these circumstances, the Group is promoting the shift of technical employees into cutting-edge technology fields and growth industries by strengthening training programs in AR/VR, AI, IoT, RPA and other fields, with the aim of increasing the value added by engineers, and is seeking to increase sales per engineer and the utilization rate.」

「In addition, we worked to improve dispatch rates by promoting the reassignment of engineers to higher-value-added work, among other measures.」

「In addition, we worked to improve dispatch rates by promoting the reassignment of engineers to higher-value-added work, among other measures.」

「Our engineer dispatch business operates mainly in the IT, machinery, electrical and electronic, and chemical and biotechnology fields. To increase the value added by our engineers, we are strengthening training programs in cutting-edge technology fields such as AR/VR, AI, IoT and RPA, as well as growth industries such as automobiles, and promoting the shift of technical employees into cutting-edge technology fields and growth industries, thereby seeking to increase the dispatch rate per engineer and the utilization rate.」

「In addition, dispatch rates increased as assignments to higher-value-added work progressed, as well as through higher dispatch rates at the same assignment and higher dispatch rates resulting from changing assignments.」

「In addition, dispatch rates increased as assignments to higher-value-added work progressed, as well as through higher dispatch rates at the same assignment and higher dispatch rates resulting from changing assignments.」

「In addition, contract rates increased as assignments to higher-value-added work progressed, and through charge-ups (higher billing rates at the same assignment) and strategic transfers (higher billing rates resulting from changing assignments).」

「We are enhancing our training programs in cutting-edge technology fields, including AI (Artificial Intelligence), IoT (Internet of Things) and VR (Virtual Reality), with the aim of increasing the value added by our engineers. Through these efforts, we will seek to improve engineers' skills and satisfaction, as well as customer satisfaction. We will also seek to increase sales per engineer and the utilization rate of dispatched engineers. In addition, we are working to strengthen human skills using HQ Profile®, an assessment tool for HQ (Human Quotient®), a proprietary index of human capabilities developed by the Company.」

「Revenue benefited from new graduate engineers becoming operational earlier than in the same period of the previous year, a significant increase in contract rates, progress in assigning engineers to higher-value-added work, and higher contract rates through charge-ups (higher billing rates at the same assignment) and strategic transfers (higher billing rates resulting from changing assignments).」

「In addition to progress in assigning engineers to higher-value-added work, contract rates also increased through charge-ups (higher billing rates at the same assignment) and strategic transfers (higher billing rates achieved by changing assignments).」

「In addition to progress in assigning engineers to higher-value-added work, contract rates also increased through charge-ups (higher billing rates at the same assignment) and strategic transfers (higher billing rates achieved by changing assignments).」

「In addition to further promoting the development of human skills through HQProfile®, we will enhance technical-skills training in the aforementioned core technologies. We are also working to increase employee motivation by reforming the personnel system through clearer evaluation standards, reduce turnover through improved compensation and benefits, increase average tenure, and raise the proportion of mid- to high-level engineers.」
