The Hidden Issue of Harassment in Resignation Support Services

As the modern workplace becomes increasingly complex, so do the issues surrounding employee resignation. With instances of individuals seeking resignation support services on the rise, a deeper exploration into the underlying causes reveals critical facets of harassment that often go unreported.

The general perception of resignation support services is primarily centered on the act of helping employees transition out of their jobs smoothly. However, recent trends indicate that many individuals are resorting to these services as a result of pervasive workplace harassment. On June 19, 2025, the Claire Human Resource Development Association will conduct a special seminar titled "The Relationship Between Resignation Support Services and Harassment," led by Jun Ono, a certified labor consultant renowned for addressing harassment and labor issues across various sectors including corporate, medical, and educational entities.

The Spark of Resignation

Statistical data reveals that a significant number of resignations are triggered by a single disparaging remark from a supervisor that accumulates into an unbearable situation. Phrases such as, "You've got to be kidding, that's normal," or "Stop whining about it" contribute to an oppressive environment, making employees feel there is no option but to resign. This disconcerting reality is highlighted by the over 1.2 million labor consultations reported to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare annually since the enactment of the Power Harassment Prevention Law in 2020, reflecting systemic issues where employees feel unable to voice their experiences.

Seminar Topics and Insights

The upcoming seminar aims to dissect numerous case studies of individuals who felt compelled to use resignation support services due to unconsulted harassment. The discussion will delve into essential questions including:

• - What types of harassment remain unrecognized before resignation?
• - Why do individuals find it challenging to seek help before resigning?
• - What practical strategies can be implemented in workplaces to enhance awareness and prevention?
