[Instructor] Koichi Sato, Representative Partner / Certified Social Insurance and Labor Consultant, HR Plus Social Insurance and Labor Consultant Corporation [Key Lecture Content] Recently, approximately 40% of the labor force consists of non-regular employees, and the declining birthrate is progressing due to insufficient income. In response, the government has been making successive legal revisions, including the indefinite conversion rule and the so-called "equal pay for equal work." Additionally, against the backdrop of a recent labor shortage, there has been an increase in cases of employing contractors and freelancers, which has raised the risk of disguised contracting due to inappropriate practices. This course will touch on the contents of the "Equal Pay for Equal Work Guidelines," which are scheduled to be revised in October this year, and will also organize the latest "current situation" for each employment category of non-regular employees.

In recent years, have you noticed an increase in corrective recommendations regarding "free storage of molds"? Cases where molds are stored for long periods without orders or where usage records cannot be confirmed are increasingly viewed as problematic from the perspective of the Subcontract Act (Act on the Proper Transaction of Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises). In fact, many companies may feel uneasy about management situations such as "not knowing where they are" or "not knowing when they were last used." Therefore, we will hold a webinar to explain practical methods for managing loaned molds as a response to these corrective recommendations. ✅ Recommended for: - Those who feel uneasy about the management status of loaned molds - Those who want to strengthen operations in preparation for legal compliance (Subcontract Act) - Those who have challenges in establishing mold management rules with business partners - Those who want to visualize the location, usage history, and evidence management of molds In this webinar, we will not only introduce management methods but also clearly explain how to advance mold management at a practical operational level. Now is the perfect opportunity to prepare for risks while you still think "it's okay." If you have any interest, please join us.
