Japan Public Interest Reporting Service Co., Ltd. Fully Renovates Website

Japan Public Interest Reporting Service Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Yokohama, Kanagawa Prefecture, President and Representative Director: Naoshi Kozuka) has fully renovated its corporate website (https://jwbs.co.jp/).

This renovation aims to support companies in complying with the legal system revisions scheduled to take effect in 2026. To achieve this, we have reorganized our services and implementation plans for greater clarity and have revamped the website to allow users to smoothly access the information they need based on their purpose of use.

Background of the Renovation

In recent years, companies have been increasingly expected not only to establish internal reporting systems but also to create a work environment where employees can feel secure, such as by preventing harassment and strengthening compliance systems.

Specifically, 2026 will see the enforcement of new legal systems that companies must address, including the "Child Sexual Violence Prevention Act" and the mandatory implementation of measures against "Job Hunting Harassment" and "Customer Harassment."

In response to these societal changes, Japan Public Interest Reporting Service Co., Ltd. has made its external consultation services, which have been offered traditionally, easier to understand. We have also reorganized information on our website to align with legal revisions, making it easier for companies to select the services they require.

Japan's Only* External Harassment Consultation Service "Supporting from Consultation to Resolution"

Many general external harassment consultation services typically conclude their involvement after receiving consultations or reports and then forwarding them to the company for action.

However, in reality, there are many situations that require specialized support, such as fact-finding, consideration of response policies, interviews with involved parties, and development of recurrence prevention measures.

Japan Public Interest Reporting Service Co., Ltd. goes beyond simply receiving consultations. We provide comprehensive support, from expert advice to investigations and resolution assistance. We also conduct on-site investigations as needed, offering support tailored to the company's specific circumstances.

Main Renovation Details

1. Enhanced Service Introduction for 2026 Legal Revisions

To support companies in complying with the legal system revisions scheduled for 2026, we have significantly expanded the service introductions on our website.

We have clearly organized our traditionally offered services, explaining their relevance to each legal revision and corporate challenge, improving the page structure to make it easier for companies to find the measures they need.

In particular, dedicated pages have been newly launched for:

Measures for the Child Sexual Violence Prevention Act

Measures for Job Hunting Harassment

Measures for Customer Harassment

Each page provides an easy-to-understand explanation from an expert's perspective on the overview of the legal revisions, the systems companies are required to establish, how to operate consultation desks, and how to utilize external consultation services.

Furthermore, when consultations or reports occur, our company acts as an external consultation service, providing comprehensive support including fact-finding, investigations, and on-site investigations (for a fee) as necessary.

Additionally, we have added new pathways to each service in the main slider on the top page, improving the structure for smooth access to the desired service.

2. Clear Presentation of Plan Details Based on Corporate Challenges

We have completely revised our service and plan introduction pages to enable companies to select the optimal plan according to their challenges.

For example, we have included support details tailored to specific challenges such as:

Strengthening harassment countermeasures

Outsourcing internal reporting

Implementing measures for public interest reporting

Implementing measures for child sexual violence prevention

Implementing measures for customer harassment

Implementing measures for job hunting harassment

Outsourcing investigations due to an increase in internal reports

Conducting training on harassment and compliance

This has resulted in a revamped website that makes it easier for companies to choose services that suit them.

3. Refreshed Site Design for User-Friendliness

We have reviewed the overall site design and navigation, improving the structure to allow users to intuitively access the information they need.

We have strengthened the pathways from the top page to each service page, organized information on service details, implementation plans, training, and legal revision responses, creating a website that is easy to understand even for first-time users.

Future Outlook

As a specialized organization supporting companies' compliance systems and harassment countermeasures, Japan Public Interest Reporting Service Co., Ltd. will continue to provide information in line with legal revisions and changes in social conditions.

We will continue to enhance our services, which are Japan's only* external consultation service "supporting from consultation to resolution," to ensure companies can use them with confidence, and contribute to the creation of sound workplace environments.
