HR Support Staff

Digital Marketing Company

A small Digital Marketing company with around 12 people. A young lady in her late 20’s is in charge of General Affairs, Human Resources and Finance. Her expertise was mainly in recruiting as that was her previous role for 3 years before joining this company.

Upon joining, the President gave her a copy of the labor laws and work rules manual. Any time she needed to deal with matters other than recruiting, she would take out the manual and spend 1-2 hours at a time trying to find a solution or answer to her problem.

This is a waste of her time and not productive use of her skills. By using HR Advisory, her answers and solutions are just a phone call away. She and her President feel it’s much more productive and better use of her skills.

Human Resource Contracts

IT Services Company

The Office Manager of this fast growing company was starting to find her job getting very complex and busy, with some employees working from home, others on contracts, and freelancers as well as full time employees present at the office everyday.

The company of 35 people and growing rapidly did not have a HR resource to look after all the issues starting to arise with this sudden growth and the Office Manager was finding herself becoming overwhelmed by it all. She was on the verge of leaving the company because of the stress of her job.

Now, with HR Advisory support she is optimistic about her future in the company and enjoys meeting her daily challenges.

Small business HR

Foreign Affiliated Importer

A small company (8 staff and more needed), run by the foreign President who has worked in Japan before but not as the leader of a small enterprise. He was finding himself actually becoming frustrated and worried about whether he was following local law by the book or whether he was relying too much on his Administration Assistant for local advice.

Sometimes the information he received didn’t make sense and as busy as he was, he couldn’t take the time to look it up himself to get the facts.

Now, a phone call from him in English to HR Advisory or from his Administration Assistant in Japanese takes away a lot of pressure, and assures him that his business is in good hands from a HR perspective.
