Interview

Of all the companies out there, why did you join Hiyoshi Kaisoten?

I was approached by a senior staff member who works at the company. I decided to join the company for two reasons: first, the company would pay for me to get qualifications, and second, I was attracted by the regular daytime work schedule and weekends off.

After 5 years with the company, what is rewarding about your job and what are your motivations for doing your job?

Our workplace promotes workers having multiple skills, enabling workers to improve their skills by gaining a variety of experiences for each qualification they hold. My job is rewarding because of the wide variety of work that can be done. I acquired various qualifications after joining the company, but I was most happy to have obtained a towing license. My father also has a towing license, and being able to obtain the same license as my father, whom I admire, has helped me grow as a person. Additionally, now that I have a forklift license, which I had no experience with before, I am able to support other employees, and I am happy to be able to put my acquired qualifications to use.

What attracts you to the company?

There is an atmosphere at the company where employees are united and supportive of each other. When I make mistakes, more senior workers than me come to help me and I am very encouraged by their kindness.

What are your future aspirations and goals?

I want my workplace to be filled with smiling faces. I would like to continue to communicate closely between the site and the office and be a bridge between the two.
As my future goals, I would like to obtain licenses for a class 1 health officer, an operations manager, and a crane of 5 tons or more.
