Jun Co., Ltd. established the "MOEGI HOUSE", a company-sponsored childcare project, which was officially opened on Friday, March 1.
Although many women in Japan have to quit their jobs because of their duties in childcare, the current ratio of female employees in Jun remains high at 80%, and the rate of returning to work after maternity leave is over 90%. From now on, in order to prepare an environment where employees can work confidently without stress, even while raising children, we established a unique nursery school with JUN's characters.
MOEGI HOUSE is located within a 3-minute walk from the head office. The nursery has enough childcare staff for ten children in total, who perform careful childcare duties according to the development stage and individuality of each child. The garden inside the nursery mimics a forest and design is based on spring green for the children to sprout and grow healthy. The nursery is equipped with a variety of colorful toys made of natural materials that are soft to the touch to foster children with high sensibility who can come up with novel ideas.JUN will always strive to create a work environment where female employees can work conveniently even after giving birth, improve various facilities and systems so that each employee can be reinstated as soon as possible, and support the "coexistence of work and child care" for female employees.- 2019.03.07
