MAST and Olive Team Up for Online Seminar on Staff Retention in Caregiving

On February 18, 2026, from 14:00 to 15:30 JST, MAST Inc. and Olive Inc. will host a free online seminar aimed at executives in the caregiving industry. The seminar, titled "How to Create Workplaces Where Both Japanese and Foreign Staff Stay: A 90-Day Action Plan Revealed!", will tackle the critical issue of staff retention in the caregiving sector, highlighting the challenges faced with early turnover and the integration of foreign personnel.

Background of the Seminar

The caregiving and welfare industry has been experiencing a chronic shortage of personnel. Despite enhanced recruitment efforts, many organizations face difficulties in retaining staff, leading to increased workloads and additional costs related to hiring and training. In recent years, this challenge has been compounded by the need to better integrate foreign staff into teams alongside Japanese workers.

To address these pressing issues, this seminar will feature insights from the leaders of both MAST and Olive. The representatives will share practical approaches to enhance retention rates for both local and international employees, leveraging their unique strengths in staff support.

Seminar Highlights

Participants in the seminar can expect to gain valuable knowledge and insights, including:

• - Visualization of the common factors that lead to turnover and prioritization of actionable solutions.
• - Key points for establishing a system that effectively supports the retention of Japanese staff.
• - Common pitfalls and strategies for successfully integrating foreign workers into the caregiving environment.
• - Practical retention checklists that can be implemented immediately, focusing on development, communication, and operational integration.
