JR West said that the number of railway passengers will decrease significantly due to the impact of the new corona, and it is necessary to reduce labor costs and maintain employment. I decided to send them to a company outside the group.
According to JR West, about 200 to 300 of the approximately 30,000 employees, including drivers, will be seconded, with a maximum period of two years.
With the consent of the person, the company will be seconded to restaurants and hotels outside the group from June, so the salary will be borne by the host company.
In JR West, the number of railway passengers has decreased significantly due to the impact of the new Corona, and the final profit and loss for the year to last month is expected to be 240 billion yen, making improving the financial situation an urgent issue. I will.
Since February, we have been implementing a "temporary return" to take more than 1000 employees a day, but we have decided to seconde employees to reduce labor costs while maintaining employment.
In the transportation industry, management is becoming more difficult due to the influence of the new Corona, and ANA Holdings, Japan Airlines, etc. are also sending employees to external companies.
