Fujitsu decided to use telework in principle for approximately 80,000 domestic group employees. By radically rethinking the way people work, they are quitting their assignments and being able to live with their family.

According to the announcement, Fujitsu will change the work style to telework in principle for about 80,000 domestic group employees, excluding manufacturing sites, and from this month will shift to flex work, where the working hours can be freely selected.

Telework from home and business trips will allow you to move away from a single person and live with your family. The policy is to enable them to work.

Also, instead of abolishing the commuter pass fee payment, we will newly pay 5,000 yen monthly from this month as an aid for environment maintenance and communication expenses for working at home.

We will increase the number of satellite offices nationwide so that we can choose where to work, while reducing the extra space and halving the office space in three years' time.

Hiroki Hiramatsu, managing director of Fujitsu, who met online said, "We want to realize a work style that does not sacrifice the lives of employees."

With the spread of the new coronavirus, Calbee, a major confectionery manufacturer, has also decided to stop working alone, and companies are introducing new work styles that utilize telework.
