WiLL's Game-Changing Initiative for the Future of Welfare

In a significant step towards transforming the welfare landscape in Japan, WiLL Co., Ltd. has officially launched the ‘Re-Start Program’, aimed at supporting individuals in their 20s to 40s residing in rural areas. This innovative program facilitates seamless relocation, employment, and skill acquisition for those looking to move to Tokyo, addressing both the low-wage issues in local areas and the talent shortage in urban centers.

Located in Shibuya, Tokyo, WiLL provides 24/7 disability welfare services with a vision to bridge the gap between rural job stagnation and the pressing need for skilled workers in the capital. The Re-Start program leverages government-backed initiatives such as the 'Housing Subsidy Program,' making it possible for participants to relocate without any initial financial burden.

Background of the Program: Zero Risk Migration to Tokyo

Currently, many individuals in rural cities desire to explore job opportunities in Tokyo but are often deterred by the financial challenges of moving and establishing a new life. Simultaneously, there is a significant demand for heavy home care support for individuals with severe disabilities, yet the supply of caregivers is critically low.
WiLL’s proactive solution to this dilemma combines a zero-cost migration to Tokyo with the opportunity to earn a valuable professional qualification in a new and growing field.

A Third Force in Heavy Home Care

WiLL distinguishes itself from traditional large organizations and small local businesses, positioning itself as a ‘third choice’ in the care industry by providing three core values that redefine the standards:

1. Complete Housing Assurance: By fully utilizing Tokyo's housing support programs, WiLL covers all initial costs, including deposits and rental assistance. This alleviates the main concern of potential relocators—finding affordable and secure housing in the highly competitive Tokyo market.

2. Rapid Qualification to Professional Status: WiLL offers its employees the financial support to complete the necessary training to become heavy home care workers within just three days of starting—an initiative that directly addresses the skills gap in the industry.

3. Competitive Salaries and Personalized Work: With starting salaries of ¥300,000 (approx. $2,800) per month, depending on qualifications and roles, WiLL recognizes the importance of personalized care. This one-on-one interaction fosters a deep bond with clients, allowing workers to experience a profound sense of fulfillment in their jobs.

Insights from WiLL’s Care Division Director, Momose

Momose, the Director of WiLL’s Care Division, emphasizes the organization's mission to create new norms in welfare.

“From Shibuya, we aim to be the third force in the welfare sector. We want those who wish to change their current situations but lack the courage to do so, to see that challenge as an opportunity in the vibrant city of Shibuya. What we offer is not merely a ‘job’; it’s a chance to grow as individuals while making a difference in people’s lives.”

Momose asserts that WiLL strives to be like a family for those who relocate to Tokyo, ensuring they feel supported as they embark on this significant life change.
