Frontier Achieves Salary Growth Goals Ahead of Schedule with Ready Crew

Frontier Inc., headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo, and the operator of the business matching service Ready Crew, has made impressive strides in employee compensation. Announcing a notable achievement just a year after initiating its ambitious '1.5 Times Average Salary Project by 2027,' Frontier revealed its plans to further enhance employee salaries from 2024 through 2025, exceeding initial projections.

In a standout announcement, Frontier reported an average salary increase of approximately 20% for all employees in 2025 compared to 2024. Even more impressively, individual professionals recorded an astounding growth rate of 2.3 times compared to the previous year, demonstrating the company's commitment to recognizing and rewarding talent appropriately.

The key driver behind these significant salary increases has been the enhanced productivity of Ready Crew. This platform leverages a unique model that combines human expertise with AI technology to optimize the matching process between clients and service providers. The resulting improvements in matching accuracy have naturally led to enhanced customer experiences.

With this fruitful cycle, Frontier continues to invest in its talent, translating business profitability directly into salaries and growth opportunities. As a result, employees receive proper recognition in terms of financial rewards, independent of their position or length of service. Instead, the system focuses on evaluating individual skills and performance outcomes.

Synergy Between Salary Increases and Incentives

Along with the revised salary table set for April 2025, the expansion of performance-related incentives has also played a significant role in uplifting individual salaries. This synergy is pivotal in driving Frontier's strategic vision, reinforcing its position as a competitive employer.

Addressing Social Challenges

The increase in salaries is particularly timely, given the socio-economic landscape, which has highlighted issues such as inflation and the rise in living costs, including energy prices. Frontier’s actions aim to counteract the decrease in real wages affecting the workforce.

Moreover, the strategy to strengthen organizational competitiveness enhances career development throughout the entire workforce. By adjusting compensation based on job role and achievements, Frontier aims to foster a culture of growth and proactive career management.

In light of anticipated labor shortages, especially with a dwindling workforce and a growing scarcity of skilled professionals, the company has proactively enhanced employment conditions to attract and retain talent in both mid-career and graduate recruitment markets.

Commitment to a Fair and Transparent Environment

At Frontier, the core value of 'bringing ideas into shape' drives its mission to create a just and transparent society that offers growth and challenging opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender or age. The organization actively promotes a workplace where all employees can thrive and be challenged. Continuing its strong commitment to these principles, Frontier intends to maintain its aggressive salary incentives to support employee development.

Recognized as a 'Health Management Excellent Corporation' by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry and the Japan Health Conference for several consecutive years, Frontier strives to continue creating a conducive and sustainable work environment.
