Collaboration for Enhanced Employment Support

In a promising development for employment support in Ehime Prefecture, Persol Business Process Design, a key player in BPO services, has joined forces with VALT JAPAN, a pioneering startup. Together, they are embarking on the creation of a work hour visualization app tailored specifically for users with employment challenges. This initiative is part of the “DX/BPO Support Model for Employment Challenged Individuals” project aimed at leveraging digital technology to enhance both job opportunities and salary levels for users of employment support offices in the region.

Objective of the Project

The initiative is designed to increase productivity through effective use of digital transformation. By providing tools that help visualize the types and durations of work performed by individuals needing job support, the collaboration aims to improve salaries and create a more fulfilling work environment. This project is backed by the Ehime Prefectural Government, which is overseeing the triangle Ehime promotion project known as the “Digital Implementation Acceleration Project.” VALT JAPAN is playing a significant role within this framework.

App Features and Advantages

The work hour visualization app will enable employment support offices to optimize their operations. Key features include:

1. Task Selection and Time Measurement: Users can select tasks and track the time taken for each, providing clarity on the types of work engaged in and the time invested.
2. Customizable Task Types: Task categories can be tailored to fit the specific needs of each office, allowing for a more relevant and efficient workflow.
3. Progress Management and Data Analysis: The app will facilitate real-time progress tracking, thereby aiding in the analysis of work input and productivity.

This holistic approach not only focuses on improving the productivity of employment support offices but also enhances the pay and job satisfaction of individuals requiring support in finding work.

Tech Development Collaboration

VALT JAPAN, with its deep understanding of the unique characteristics of individuals needing job support, will define app requirements, while Persol Business Process Design will contribute its extensive knowledge of app development for enhancing productivity across various clientele. Together, they will ensure the app is user-friendly, providing rich insights from straightforward operations.

Enhancing UI/UX for Users

The design of the app prioritizes user experience, especially considering that traditional work hour visualization apps can be cumbersome for those needing support. By employing intuitive interfaces, the app will enable users to easily engage with their tasks from selection to input. Feedback from employment support offices will be continuously collected during the development phase to refine the app’s usability.

Administrative and Data Visualization Tools

For staff and administrators, a data visualization tool will be integrated, allowing for real-time monitoring and analysis of each individual's productivity. This includes setting alerts for when certain utilization metrics drop, enabling more responsive management of operations. Dashboards will be developed to reflect productivity and operational status on a client and project basis, giving a comprehensive view of office performance.

Triangle Ehime Initiative and Future Goals

The “Triangle Ehime 2.0” initiative, highlighted in this project, represents a significant investment in the future of employment support in the region. More details can be found on the dedicated project website.
