In this year’s labor negotiations, Saibu Gas, a major energy company, has decided to raise its base salary by an average of 3,700 yen per month. This is the first time in 23 years the company has implemented such an increase. The decision was made after the labor union demanded a larger salary increase due to inflation and rising fuel costs. The company will particularly focus on raising salaries for employees aged 30 and under. Source: NHK
