The Japan Association for Local Government DX Promotion (located in Minato-ku, Tokyo; hereinafter 'GDX') plans to publish the next issue of its bulletin 'Local Government DX Guide', which supports digital transformation (DX) for local governments, as 'Local Government DX Guide Vol.10'.

The special feature theme of this issue is 'Human Resources DX for Local Governments: The Future of Personnel, Recruitment, and Work Styles'.

Against the backdrop of worsening staff shortages, the 2040 problem, and work style reforms, the human resource challenges for local governments are expanding beyond recruitment to include training, retention, work design, and organizational development. To maintain and improve the quality of administrative services with limited personnel, it is necessary not only to introduce digital technology but also to create an environment where each employee can demonstrate their abilities and to review human resource management.

This special feature plans to cover HR DX, training and talent management, side jobs and utilization of external human resources, initiatives of advanced local governments, and the latest solutions for local governments. It will provide practical information that comprehensively addresses recruitment, training, retention, and work styles, considering the future of local government organizations.
