About us

Message
from the CEO

Our mission is "foster peace of mind, encourage endeavors.” Peace of mind for the future encourages people to pursue endeavors tomorrow. These endeavors will create a better future. Through this virtuous cycle of "peace of mind" and "endeavors," we aim to achieve our corporate vision of "establishing a sustainable social security system.” To that end, we focus on the three pillars of “elderly care,” “disability support," and “childcare.”

For elderly care, we offer services to help elderly people maintain a healthy life. For disability support, we provide support to help those with disabilities access work and facilities and be an active member of society. Finally, for children and their families, we provide safe and educational environments.

In Japan, where the population is declining, we believe that one of the solutions is to reduce the number of people leaving the workforce due to caring for parents, childbirth and childcare, encourage social participation by people with disabilities, and provide children, who will carry the future, with safe and educational environments. We are engaged in business with the aim of creating a social system.

With the vision of “establishing a sustainable social security system,” Living Platform, Ltd. provides quality services at reasonable prices and suppresses the increase of social security expenses through its business. By supporting people’s daily lives, we enable more people to participate in social activities and the workforce. The peace of mind provided by a social security system encourages us to pursue endeavors, which in turn foster further peace of mind. This virtuous cycle is what we aim for in a sustainable social security system.

VISION

Establishing a sustainable social security system

Japan's finances are becoming strained due to the rapidly aging population and declining birthrate. The current social security system may not be the given thing it is in the near future. In order to prevent this change from occurring, Living Platform will provide quality services at reasonable prices. By supporting people's daily lives, we enable more people to participate in society and the workforce and thereby help finance social security.

The peace of mind provided by a social security system encourages endeavors, which in turn foster further peace of mind. We aim for a “virtuous cycle of peace of mind and endeavors” under a sustainable social security system. In continuing to grow our business, we will expand this virtuous circle, develop society in more diverse ways, and propose new affluence to an aging society with a declining birthrate. We will also share the know-how we have cultivated through our business with the world as a valuable asset of Japan.
