■Bridge International's 7039 Human Resource Utilization Initiatives

Inside sales, which is the company's main force, is expected to play an important role in realizing work style reforms. In addition to utilizing excellent local human resources, we are also focusing on utilizing women, silver human resources, and people with disabilities.

In terms of utilizing women, they utilize strengths such as communication and follow-up in in-house work in a corporate business environment where it was difficult for women to play an active role in the past. Also, since inside sales activities can be carried out from anywhere in the country, it is also effective as a utilization of local human resources. Silver human resources who are familiar with product knowledge and markets also contribute to companies' obligation to re-hire. People with disabilities are active as corporate sales in companies with a business model that does not visit customers.

The company has a culture of “always taking on new challenges.” Everyone thinks that any job is inexperienced at first, and if there is a job they want to try, they can take on challenges using the career change system = self-report system, etc., so career paths have been clarified. Furthermore, a system is in place to back up career paths (English, school, training, study abroad), and it is possible for employees to improve their skills and careers as the company grows.
