Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan has started to increase the re-use of employees aged 65 or older to cope with the shortage of workers.

On the 8th, the Yomiuri Shimbun reported that Toyota will expand the re-employment of senior employees aged 65 or older with abundant expertise and work skills. Currently, Toyota has allowed only about 20 people to reconsider over the age of 65 to all employees from August.

Toyota's retirement age was originally 60 years old, and until the age of 65, they could work in the form of reconsideration. This time, the personnel system will be changed to increase the age for reconsideration to 70. Working conditions, such as salaries for employees aged 65 or older, will be determined individually according to the current inventory system.

In addition, Toyota is pushing to improve the treatment of employees aged 60 to 65. Currently, if he does not take the managerial position, the wage will be set at half the level of before the age of 60. As a result, there were not a few cases of retiring the company at the retirement age of 60.

Toyota plans to reorganize the system as early as October to come up with additional compensation based on contribution.

Toyota is currently using a strategy to develop gasoline vehicles, electric vehicles, and fuel cell vehicles, which puts a lot of pressure on development and production sites. In addition, it is analyzed that the employment of senior employees is increasing to cultivate talents who are the basis of the business and pass on functions in the face of a series of denial of certification of group affiliates and quality problems.

In Japan, in addition to Toyota, many companies are pushing to extend and abolish the retirement age and improve the treatment of senior employees.

YKK, known for making zippers, eliminated the retirement age system from its Japanese businesses in 2021, while automaker Mazda is raising the retirement age from 60 to 65.

Currently, the Elderly Employment Security Act, which aims to increase the number of senior workers, mandates companies to secure employment up to the age of 65. The revised law, which took effect in 2021, asks companies to strive for employment up to the age of 70.

According to a survey by the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, the employment rate for 65-69 years old was 52.0 percent last year, up 13.3 percentage points from 10 years ago.
