Major Challenges:


The importance of Labor Relations in PMJ is rapidly growing and becoming very critical for our commercial ability to execute, and to ensure business continuity.- Japan maintains a very restrictive labor legislation, requiring the company to comply with various fixed standards and procedures.- Labor laws are changing frequently.
