Scalar, Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, CEO and COO: Wataru Fukatsu, CEO and CTO: Hiroyuki Yamada, Scalar) is Crosscat Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo, President: In collaboration with Takanori Inoue (hereinafter referred to as Crosscat), we will grasp the total working hours of employees, including side jobs, and prevent falsification of notification information when applying for side jobs and attendance information at side jobs using distributed ledger technology. We will start developing a new attendance management service and provide distributed ledger software ScalarDLT as a base technology to prevent falsification.
If it can be guaranteed that it will not be tampered with, it can be expected to be used as an effective evidence in the event of an industrial accident at a side job. At the moment, the demonstration experiment has been completed, and in the future, we are considering providing compensation services in cooperation with Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Noriyuki Hara; hereinafter referred to as Mitsui Sumitomo Insurance). In addition, we aim to further enhance it and release it within the year.
Background of new service development
The government's Growth Strategy Implementation Plan states that it is necessary to promote the establishment of side jobs and side jobs and the promotion of entrepreneurship through side jobs and side jobs.
When actually allowing employees to have side jobs or side jobs, the company is obligated to manage the total working hours of the employees, including the side jobs. On the other hand, if a worker is involved in a work-related accident during a side job, there are also issues for the worker.
Under the current workmen's compensation insurance, the amount of compensation is calculated based only on the income of the side job, which is usually lower than that of the main job, so there is a risk that in the event of an accident, it will interfere with your life.
In this way, for the establishment of side jobs and side jobs, it is essential to solve problems such as working hours management, health management, and salary compensation in the event of an industrial accident.
Therefore, we will establish a mechanism that allows employees to manage working hours at their side jobs using the attendance management system of the main business company, oblige eligible employees to enter attendance information during the side job, and the main business company will provide additional compensation for workers' injuries during the side job. We started developing a new service with the expectation that if we could do so, it would lead to the resolution of issues for both labor and management.
