FM Staff Corporation (Chuo-ku, Tokyo, hereinafter referred to as FM Staff), a group company of ITOKI CORPORATION, has established the "Yaita SLOW WORK Promotion Consortium" with Yaita City on March 18th, and will open a community co-creation shared office, "SLOW WORK YAITA," on April 4th.

With the spread of the new coronavirus infection, telework has become more popular, and working in rural areas has become a focus. It has become possible for workers in the metropolitan area to work in areas rich in nature away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and for workers in rural areas it has become possible to stay and work in their hometown.

“Slow Work Yaita” is a business that captures this change in work styles. Taking advantage of the location, which is approximately 80 minutes from Tokyo, this is Yaita City's first full-fledged shared office, targeting workers in the metropolitan area as well as the local area. The facility's catchphrase, "Work, connect, and enjoy in the community," is a place where workers from the region and the Tokyo metropolitan area gather, work, and work together to solve local issues, and have fun while discovering new value rooted in Yaita. It expresses the concept.

FM Staff, a group company of ITOKI CORPORATION, an office furniture manufacturer, has been developing a business to solve office-related issues, focusing on consulting on office analysis, planning, and maintenance operations. In the "Yaita SLOW WORK Promotion Consortium," FM Staff will provide attractive work styles that utilize local resources and are unique to Yaita, based on the knowledge and know-how it has cultivated through its main business, and will work with Yaita City and Yaita Hometown Support Center TAKIBI to contribute to the revitalization and regional revitalization of the region.
