Glass maker-AGC Headquarters, etc. 3 days a week to stay at home To less than 50% of employees working May 29th 17:30
Even after the government's declaration of an emergency has been lifted, companies are taking steps to reconsider the way they work by actively incorporating telecommuting. AGC, a major glass maker, has decided to target employees who work at the head office etc. from June 1 to work from home 3 days a week, and reduce the ratio of employees to 50% or less before the spread of infection.
In principle, AGC will work three days a week for employees who will work at the head office in Tokyo from the first day of the next month.
For business offices in Japan, this principle applies to employees in administrative departments as well as employees working in factories.
This will reduce the ratio of employees to 50% or less before the spread of infection.

Shinji Miyaji, vice president of AGC, said, “I think that we can achieve the goal of reducing the number of employees to 50% or less because we were able to work at home while working at home while the infection spread.” It was.
