"Nobody has done it before, so let’s do it" - Shinko Fukushikai is the result of putting that way of thinking into practice. In an era when welfare services such as childcare and elderly care are indispensable, we think that public corporations are able to change society through welfare and bring forth welfare that is necessary for the era.

To realize that, we need individuals with various capabilities. In order to respond to a variety of caretakers, we need diverse human resources. Young people, people with a lot of experience, healthy people, people who live with diseases, people who live with disabilities, Japanese people, foreigners, our friends, everyone.

Even if you lack experience and knowledge about childcare and elderly care, there are opportunities for people whose fields of expertise are in social sciences and natural sciences to demonstrate their abilities to their hearts content. Furthermore, we will support your career with a fulfilling training system.
