An April report by the Fukuoka branch of Teikoku Databank showed that approximately 60% of Kyushu and Okinawa-based companies failed to introduce teleworking. As few as 5% of local companies said they would meet the government’s goals. Meanwhile, a significant part of local businesses is not allowing their workers to telework, regardless of their job positions. Source: TDB
