Tokaido Energy Integrates WHILL Mobility for Enhanced Employee Welfare

In an increasingly aging society, WHILL Inc. has recently announced the adoption of its employee welfare package by Tokaido Energy Co., Ltd. This initiative aims to support the health maintenance of employees and their families while easing the burdens associated with caregiving and work. As we navigate through the challenges brought on by this super-aged demographic, the introduction of WHILL mobility solutions is set to provide an inclusive environment where employees can thrive personally and professionally.

The report highlights that nearly 30% of Japan's population is aged 65 or older, leading to an anticipated 21.7% increase in the number of individuals requiring nursing care in 2024, resulting in approximately 7.235 million people needing support. Simultaneously, a concerning trend has emerged where over half of caregivers also hold jobs while managing their responsibilities at home, and the number of individuals leaving work due to caregiving obligations continues to rise.

In response to these social challenges, the Japanese government revised the Childcare and Family Care Leave Law to better facilitate the needs of working generations. Concurrently, Tokaido Energy places a high priority on work-life balance and has made great strides towards enhancing policies that allow employees to feel fulfilled in all aspects of life, including work, family, and community involvement.

Comprehensive Employee Support

Within Tokaido Energy's commitment to diversity and inclusion, the company has developed a range of initiatives that encourage a fulfilling workplace experience tailored to individual life stages, such as the options for leave during critical family events or flexible hour systems for those balancing caregiving obligations. The recent integration of WHILL's welfare package stems from internal feedback expressing desires for a healthier work-life balance while ensuring that family members maintain independence.

WHILL is designed as a mobility aid for individuals who may struggle with traditional methods of transportation. The welfare package enables all members affiliated with Tokaido Energy to utilize WHILL mobility solutions easily and affordably for themselves and their families. This initiative aims to alleviate the common anxieties surrounding caregiving responsibilities, enhancing job satisfaction and environmental inclusivity for all employees, while also encouraging diverse talent acquisition across various demographics.

Tokaido Energy continues to prioritize its employees' mental and physical well-being; thus, it strives to establish an inclusive workplace where everyone can work comfortably, regardless of their physical, environmental, or age-related constraints. By fostering collaboration with WHILL and addressing the challenges of the modern workforce, Tokaido Energy aims to set a new standard in corporate wellness.

Towards a Brighter Future

WHILL remains committed to supporting Tokaido Energy and other partners in creating robust welfare systems that address the needs of today’s workforce, enabling employees to work with less stress while feeling backed by their employers. As companies adapt to the reality of an aging population, WHILL's innovative mobility solutions provide the resources needed for organizations to enhance inclusivity and support employee welfare, easing caregiving burdens.

Ultimately, both WHILL and Tokaido Energy believe that this partnership will lead to healthier employees and families, paving the way for a more inclusive work environment where all individuals can operate freely and confidently—no matter their circumstances.
