Nursing-care operator Sunwells Co., Ltd. (9229) said 231 employees applied for its voluntary early-retirement program and it approved 112, with related costs of about ¥89 million to be booked as an extraordinary loss.
The program, announced Sept. 1, 2026, sought up to about 120 rank-and-file care workers, nurses and rehabilitation staff in designated areas, and ran from Sept. 1 to Sept. 15, 2026. Approved participants will receive a special career-transition severance payment.
The company said it decided eligibility based on the terms announced Sept. 1, taking into account staffing at each facility and job category, staffing standards under the Long-Term Care Insurance Act and other laws, requirements for various fee add-ons, the need for handovers and other operational considerations.
