JINJIB Partners with Schoo to Enhance HR Support for SMEs

In an exciting move towards modernizing HR practices, JINJIB, a company focused on career support for high school students and human resource solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), has collaborated with Schoo, an online education platform, to strengthen organizational training and employee retention. This strategic partnership introduces Schoo's corporate online training service, Schoo for Business, into JINJIB's HR support initiative known as the HR Department Pack.

Understanding the Context of the Partnership

Employee retention and development are pivotal issues faced by many SMEs in Japan. A significant concern reported by JINJIB is that losing a young employee can potentially incur a financial loss of approximately 5.8 million yen. As such, simply recruiting new talent does not address the underlying challenges of retention. In a survey conducted by JINJIB, 94% of former top-performing employees expressed they might have reconsidered their departure if their company had acted differently. Alarmingly, more than 57% of SME employers acknowledged that they were aware of warning signs of employee dissatisfaction but failed to take appropriate actions or implement improvements.

JINJIB's HR Department Pack aims to address these issues by providing comprehensive support to SMEs, from monitoring employee turnover indicators to facilitating organizational improvements that foster employee retention. Furthermore, there is a growing recognition across numerous companies of the necessity to enhance employee development, prompting an increasing demand for integrated support combining retention strategies and training programs. Through this collaboration, JINJIB seeks to enhance the implementation of employee development initiatives, bolstering continuous organizational growth and stability.

Initiatives Under This Partnership

As part of the partnership, JINJIB will enable its HR Department Pack clients to access over 9,000 diverse learning resources offered through Schoo's Schoo for Business program. This will not only enrich the ongoing support provided by JINJIB but will also allow companies to leverage a wide range of educational content tailored to boost business skills, management practices, and the latest AI trends.

The blend of JINJIB’s supportive framework and Schoo’s educational platform aims to foster a culture of continuous learning within SMEs, ensuring that training outcomes are measurable and actionable. The strategic use of organizational and individual data will allow for tailored training recommendations to optimize the learning experience.

About HR Department Pack

The HR Department Pack is a monthly subscription service designed to enhance employee engagement and minimize early turnover, promoting a culture of organizational improvement.

With the integration of Schoo’s rich video content into the HR Department Pack, SMEs can leverage tailored training that supports the growth of younger employees and enhances managerial capabilities.

Testimonials from Leaders

Kenjiro Mori, CEO of Schoo, emphasized the importance of delivering educational infrastructure to small businesses, noting that the collaboration aligns perfectly with their mission to eliminate graduation from society. He highlighted the necessary support that SMEs require in order to establish a habitual learning culture.

Takahiro Mori, Executive Officer at JINJIB, remarked on the growing importance of enhancing post-hiring support, adding that the integration of Schoo’s comprehensive learning content into their HR initiative would significantly elevate the value of their services offered to SMEs.

As part of their commitment to creating a supportive environment for growth and education, both companies are dedicated to ensuring that SMEs can develop resilient organizational structures that prevent employee turnover while fostering continuous development.
