Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

Have you forgotten what you were just thinking about doing a moment ago—this or that?

It happens to me all the time! The moment I think, “I should write a blog post!!”—I’ve already forgotten what I wanted to write about.

I thought, "This is seriously crazy!" so I looked into it.

The Causes of Forgetfulness Are Calcium Deficiency and StressIt seems that...

If I just kept taking calcium and quit my job, I feel like I’d end up with an incredible memory—which is actually kind of scary, lol.

But that's beside the point.

Construction Career Advancement System

Have you heard of the Construction Career Advancement Program?

It's all the rage right now lol

However, for now, I think it's a complicated system.

So, anyway...

「Construction Career Advancement System」

Please check this.

The system is already moving full steam ahead.

So, what's the bottom line?

To put it simply and in broad terms,Both workers and managers are managed centrally using IC cards and other methodsThat's what we're going to do.

When you enter the site, you just tap your IC card—just like when you ride the subway.

Furthermore, it is expected that this will include a variety of information, such as certifications, construction project history, and company details.

Well, it's kind of like ID management systems—such as the Resident Registration Card, which failed in the past, or the My Number system, which is likely to fail down the road.

So, this is a system designed exclusively for construction companies.

Well, the content itself says some positive things, but as of now, the facts remain unclear to businesses like ours.

Maybe someday there’ll be a “beep” when you get in a backhoe to verify your certification, or a “beep” when you use a truck with a crane?

It seems that points are assigned to that ID, and workers are ranked from apprentice technicians to senior foremen.

Based on this ranking, I can infer that this project can only be awarded to companies with a certain minimum number of skilled workers.

Is it something like that—categorizing by order type or job category??

It's highly likely that salary levels will vary depending on rank, isn't it?

There's a really weird smell wafting through the air lol

Obtaining and maintaining an ID also costs money.

Let's say there are roughly 4 million people currently working in the construction industry.

Assuming that everyone obtained it individually,

Since 1 ID equals 2,500 yen,2,400 yen × 4 million = 10 billion!

This is the first year, but it looks like it's renewed every 10 years.

1 billion in one year...

And actually, that's not all—it costs money to use it on-site, too. Even more money...

That meansWho, exactly, is benefiting from this system in the end??

Play a Public Works card before you play your hand!Like...

Am I a traitor for thinking this??

 

That said, it's already underway.

So,

The Construction Career Advancement System is scheduled to go live in the fall of Heisei 30!That's it.

I don't know yet how things will actually turn out, but since information is being released, I'll keep a close eye on the situation with interest.

If I hear anything else, I'll let you all know!

 

See you later.
