COMMENCING BUSINESS AT THE TOKYO SHINAGAWA SST OFFICE

Implementing work style reforms

In October 2017, KOKUYO established and moved its operations in the Tokyo region to a new office; on October 2, business commenced at the Tokyo Shinagawa SST Office. The goals of the move were the re-centralization and optimization of our management resources, efficiency improvements, and the establishment of a new work style suited to KOKUYO. For some time now, the company has been working hard to develop a variety of new products and design a range of business spaces that would contribute to work style reforms at its Japanese offices. In order to take our initiatives one step further and foster a corporate culture that draws out value from our employees, we established the Tokyo Shinagawa SST Office.

The new office locates all departments on a single floor. By removing both physical and psychological barriers between different departments to ensure smooth communication and enhanced collaboration, the office is designed to improve workplace productivity. With the exception of staff who require specialized terminals for their work, for example, the office operates a system where employees are free to change desk. We hope that by changing where they sit on a daily basis and thereby expanding their observable world, employees will be encouraged to have new realizations and ideas, and that inter-staff communications will improve. Of course, we realize that establishing a new office will not solve all our problems in one go. However, we firmly believe that the experience of thinking about, trying out, and implementing such work style reforms ourselves will lead to suggestions beneficial

KOKUYO AIMS TO BE A LIFE & WORK STYLE COMPANY USEFUL TO SOCIETY BY “IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE“.
