It is ten times higher than before, reaching a record high, and it is expected that those graduating next year will also face similarly high competition ratios, so the sellers market is likely to continue.
このうち東京・江戸川区の都立葛西南高校では求人票を持った企業の担当者が次々と訪れました。
At Tokyo Metropolitan Kasai Minami High School in Edogawa Ward, Tokyo, company representatives with job postings visited one after another.
この学校にはサービス業や製造業を中心に幅広い業種からの求人が寄せられ、これまでよりも初任給を2万円から3万円ほど引き上げた企業もあるということです。
A wide range of job offers from industries such as the service and manufacturing sectors have been received by this school, and there are companies that have raised their starting salaries by about 20,000 to 30,000 yen compared to before.
学校を訪れた運送会社の人事担当者は「最近はどの企業も高卒採用に力を入れていると聞いているが、基本給を上げたり福利厚生を充実させたりして仲間を増やしていきたい」と話していました。
The HR manager from the transportation company who visited the school said, Ive heard that recently all companies are focusing on hiring high school graduates, but we want to increase our team by raising the base salary and enhancing our employee benefits.
企業とのミスマッチどう防ぐかが課題
一方で、高校を卒業して就職した人の3年以内の離職率は去年3月末の時点で38。
How to prevent mismatches with companies is an issue. Meanwhile, as of the end of last March, the turnover rate within three years for people who found employment after graduating from high school was 38%.

At 4%, it tends to be higher than among university graduates, so the challenge is how to prevent mismatches with companies.
そこで、学校では生徒たちに志望する業界の分析をじっくり行ってもらおうと、自宅などで求人票を見ることができるシステムを導入していて、さっそく、担当の教員がパソコンに求人情報を取り込んでいました。
Therefore, the school has introduced a system that allows students to carefully analyze their desired industries by viewing job postings at home or elsewhere. Immediately, the teacher in charge was already uploading job information to the computer.

高校生の採用 企業の対応は
初任給を大幅にアップ
事業の拡大に向けて高校生の採用を進めようと、来年春に入社する社員の初任給を大幅に引き上げる企業があります。
I think the high job-offer ratio is a great opportunity for students as well, so I hope they can find a job that suits them. In terms of hiring high school students, some companies are significantly increasing starting salaries for employees joining next spring, in order to expand their businesses and actively recruit high school students.
高卒の社員の初任給を大幅に引き上げるのは、都内を中心におよそ30店舗のつけ麺専門店を展開する会社です。
The company that will significantly raise the starting salary for employees who graduated from high school operates about 30 tsukemen specialty restaurants, mainly in Tokyo.
ことし春に入社した人よりも5万円ほど高い、およそ26万円とします。
It will be about 260,000 yen, which is about 50,000 yen higher than those who joined the company this spring.
会社にはおよそ80人の社員がいて、高卒で入社した人は、まず店舗で調理と接客を担当して経験を積み、店長や複数の店舗を受け持つマネージャーへのステップアップを目指します。
There are about 80 employees at the company. Those who join after graduating from high school first gain experience by working in food preparation and customer service at the stores, and then aim to step up to positions such as store manager or manager overseeing multiple stores.
来年は事業の拡大に向けて出店を増やす予定で、例年5人ほど出している高校生の求人を今回はおよそ10人とする計画です。
We plan to increase the number of store openings next year to expand our business, and while we usually hire about five high school students each year, this time we plan to hire around ten.
高校生などとこれまで交流してきた中で「親元から自立して東京で働きたいが、家賃などの初期費用が高く夢を諦めざるを得ない」という話が出たことから、会社では最近の物価高騰も踏まえて初任給の大幅な引き上げを決めました。
In conversations with high school students and others up to now, we have heard stories such as, I want to become independent from my parents and work in Tokyo, but the initial costs like rent are so high that I have to give up on my dream. Taking into account the recent surge in prices as well, the company has decided to significantly raise the starting salary.

「本当はもうちょっと採用したいと考えているが、求人倍率が高くて厳しい状況だ。
President Tsujita said, Honestly, Id like to hire a few more people, but the job-offer-to-applicant ratio is high, so its a tough situation.

“キャリーケース1つで上京” 社員寮を導入
高校生の採用につなげようと、福利厚生の一環として社員寮を導入した企業もあります。
The company has grown in size and become more established, so we want to increase hiring even more than before. Moving to Tokyo with just one suitcase — Some companies have introduced employee dormitories as part of their benefits package, aiming to attract high school students to join.
住宅や商業施設など建物の内装の解体や資材の運搬などを行う都内の会社は、およそ200人いる社員のうちの54人が高校を卒業して新卒で入社した社員です。
A company in Tokyo that handles interior demolition of buildings such as homes and commercial facilities, as well as material transportation, has 54 out of its approximately 200 employees who joined the company as new graduates after finishing high school.
事業の拡大や今後の会社の中核となる人材を獲得しようと、会社では2022年から高卒採用を始め、それにあわせて導入したのが社員寮です。
In an effort to expand our business and secure personnel who will become the core of the company in the future, we began hiring high school graduates in 2022, and in line with that, we introduced an employee dormitory.
会社が借り上げたアパート2棟には現在、定員いっぱいの31人が暮らしています。
Currently, 31 people, the full capacity, are living in the two apartment buildings leased by the company.
入居できるのは入社3年目までの高卒の社員で、各部屋にテレビや冷蔵庫、ベッドが備えられています。
You can move in if you are a high school graduate employee in your third year with the company or less, and each room is equipped with a TV, refrigerator, and bed.
シャワールームやトイレは共用でみんなで過ごせる共有スペースもあります。
The shower rooms and toilets are shared, and there are also common areas where everyone can spend time together.
会社が建物の借り上げ費用や光熱費など月およそ100万円を支出していて、社員の負担はゼロです。
The company spends about 1 million yen per month on building rental fees and utilities, and employees bear no cost.
さらに、社員寮で暮らし始める人には生活を早く軌道に乗せてもらうため米5キロやレトルト食品など1か月分の食料を無料で配っています。
Furthermore, for those who start living in the company dormitory, we provide a months worth of food, such as 5 kilograms of rice and instant meals, free of charge to help them get their lives on track quickly.
秋田県の高校を卒業してことし入社した女性は「趣味や貯金にお金を使うことができて快適です。
A woman who graduated from a high school in Akita Prefecture and joined the company this year said, Its comfortable because I can spend money on my hobbies and savings.

話していました。
Right now, the on-site training is really exhausting, but when I come back to the dorm and everyone is there, I feel really energized, they said.
会社ではこれまでの4年間に54人の高校生を採用していますが、退職したのは3人で、社員寮が職場への定着につながっていると手応えを感じています。
In the past four years, our company has hired 54 high school graduates, and only three have left. We feel that the company dormitory is helping employees to settle into their jobs.
ことしの高校生の求人は15人を予定していて、2035年ごろまでにさらに100人の採用を目標にしています。
This year, we plan to recruit 15 high school students, and our goal is to hire an additional 100 people by around 2035.
採用部門のリーダー 若海凪紗さん
「親元を離れる高卒生が多くいるので、キャリーケース1つで上京できるような環境を会社として提供できればと考えました。
Recruitment department leader Nagisa Wakami: Since many high school graduates leave their parents homes, we thought it would be good if the company could provide an environment where they could move to Tokyo with just one suitcase.

【Q＆A】高校生の就職活動に詳しい専門家は
高校生の就職活動に詳しい、リクルートワークス研究所の古屋星斗主任研究員に話を聞きました。
In the future, as companies grow, we want to conduct recruitment activities by hearing from employees who were actually hired about how to attract talent. [Q&A] We spoke with an expert on high school students job hunting: Seito Furuya, Senior Researcher at Recruit Works Institute, who is well-versed in high school students job hunting.
Q。ことしの春に卒業した高校生の求人倍率は4。The job offer ratio for high school students who graduated this spring is 4.
Ten times, zero compared to the previous year.
It has increased by 12 points.
A。Why is the competition rate so high?
The underlying reason is the strong demand, especially among small and medium-sized local businesses, to hire high school students.
70歳ぐらいまで働く人が日本では増えてきているが、団塊の世代が75歳を超えて仕事を辞めていくことになる。
The number of people working until around the age of 70 is increasing in Japan, but as the baby boomer generation passes 75, they will start retiring from their jobs.
自社の中心となるような社員が離職するという悩みがあり、次の世代を担うような若者を採用したいという動きが広がっている。
There is a concern about key employees leaving the company, and there is a growing movement to hire young people who will take on the next generation.
Q。企業はどのように取り組んでいるのか
A。How are companies addressing this?
More and more companies are struggling and experimenting, and a clear example is the increase in starting salaries.
本当に信じられない金額を出して採用しようとする企業がある。
There are companies that try to hire by offering truly unbelievable amounts of money.
また、高校生は会社に入ってから3年でおよそ4割が離職しているので、時間とお金をかけてじっくり育てていこうという会社が増えてきている。
Also, about 40% of high school graduates leave their jobs within three years after joining a company, so more and more companies are choosing to invest time and money to carefully nurture their employees.
Q。採用競争に勝ち抜くために必要なことは
A。What is necessary to win the recruitment competition is A.
Companies are reaching a point where simply putting effort into recruitment activities is no longer enough to hire new employees.
地域の中小企業は採用の前の段階から地域にある学校と組んで、キャリア教育や探究学習へのコンテンツの提供やインターンシップの受け入れなどでかかわっていくことが重要だ。
It is important for local small and medium-sized enterprises to get involved from the pre-recruitment stage by collaborating with local schools, such as providing content for career education and inquiry-based learning, and accepting interns.
こうしたことを通じて高校生に対して会社への理解、自分が進みたい業界への納得感を高めていく必要がある。
Through these efforts, it is necessary to deepen high school students’ understanding of companies and increase their sense of conviction about the industries they wish to pursue.
Q。企業にとって高校生の採用で大事なことは
A。What is important for companies when hiring high school students is A.
Improving the working environment is a fundamental prerequisite, and it should be properly established.
高校生を100人も200人も採用するという企業はそんなに多くない。
There arent that many companies that hire as many as 100 or 200 high school students.
やはり1人2人を採用して育てていきたいという企業が大多数だ。
As expected, the majority of companies want to hire and train just one or two people.
個人をしっかり見ることが大事。
It is important to pay close attention to each individual.
「大学生だから研修で、高校生だから現場で」というのではなく、育成をするうえで研修が向いてるか、現場で学ぶことが向いているか、こういった視点で育成戦略を考える必要がある。
Its not about training for university students and on-the-job experience for high school students. When developing people, its important to consider whether training or on-the-job learning is more suitable for them, and to formulate development strategies from that perspective.
待遇面も同じで「大学生だからこのぐらい、高校生だからこのぐらい」というのではなく、その人が会社でどのくらい頑張っているのかを見極める。
The same goes for treatment: instead of deciding “this much for university students, this much for high school students,” we evaluate how hard each person is working in the company.
そういう観点でこれまでの常識を変えないと若手に振り向いてもらえるような魅力的な会社はつくれないと思う。
From that perspective, I dont think we can create an attractive company that will appeal to young people unless we change the conventional way of thinking up to now.
