Fuji Pan Group Integrates HR Operations with 'COMPANY'

In a significant step towards enhanced operational efficiency, Fuji Pan Group, a major player in the food industry, has adopted the integrated human resources system known as 'COMPANY'. This new system will serve approximately 23,000 employees across its 19 subsidiary businesses, streamlining various HR processes that were previously managed separately by each company.

Streamlining HR Operations

Prior to the adoption of 'COMPANY', Fuji Pan Group faced challenges due to the individual handling of HR and labor operations by each subsidiary. The lack of a unified HR management system resulted in inefficiencies, including issues with data integration between different systems, significant manual processing, and increased server loads. To address these issues, the Group has decided to centralize all HR and labor operations under one roof, reducing the overall workload by approximately 29,000 hours annually.

The adoption of 'COMPANY' is not merely a technological update but a strategic move to create a robust, efficient management framework. The system offers extensive features tailored for Japanese enterprises, facilitating everything from employment procedures to payroll management and employee requests through an integrated workflow.

Expected Benefits

1. Enhanced Speed and Accuracy Through Automated Data Integration
Employees will experience a marked improvement in the speed and accuracy of HR processes. By managing recruitment procedures, personnel orders, employee applications, and payroll calculations through 'COMPANY', the company will benefit from seamless data integration across different operational processes. Tasks that once required dual entries and complex data handling will be significantly minimized.

Moreover, the transition from paper-based applications for personal details, commuting arrangements, and My Number procedures to a web-based process will greatly enhance convenience for employees. Automatic integration of application data into HR and payroll systems will eliminate unnecessary manual data entry, thereby speeding up overall HR operations.

2. Efficiency in Cross-Company Transfers and Deployment Management
For Fuji Pan Group's strategic human resource allocation, managing employee transfers, deployments, and transitions between companies has posed ongoing challenges. 'COMPANY' will streamline this process by using a centralized database to maintain all pertinent information regarding employee transfers. This comprehensive management will mitigate administrative burdens related to employee movements across the Group and utilize advanced functionalities to facilitate complex payroll calculations.

Through these improvements, Fuji Pan anticipates an annual reduction in workload amounting to 29,000 hours as they enhance the speed and accuracy of HR operations, leading to better resource allocation and efficient labor management.

Insights from Fuji Pan Group

According to the HR and General Affairs Department of Fuji Pan Group, prior systems were disparate and paper-based, reflecting the need for modernization in response to changes in business environments. The transition to 'COMPANY' signifies a commitment to standardize and digitize HR processes, positioning the Group to realize substantial synergies amidst evolving business needs.

The Group is dedicated to improving employee convenience while promoting paperless operations and enhancing overall efficiency. By continuing to build upon the data accumulated within 'COMPANY', Fuji Pan aims to foster optimal employee deployment and developmental opportunities for all its members, ensuring that each individual can thrive in their respective roles.
