Kanna Hashimoto’s office, which has 15 employees, recruits 10 people for a “large-scale recruitment” and “worrisome employment conditions.

We would like to state unequivocally that the article concerning the power harassment of Kanna Hashimoto, an actress belonging to our company, has no basis in fact and is clearly untrue.

Amidst the huge stir created by the November 1 issue of Shukan Bunshun (Weekly Bunshun), which reported on allegations of power harassment by actress Kanna Hashimoto, Isao Ito, president of her agency Discovery Next, completely denied the allegations in a lengthy commentary.

In the article, it is reported that Hashimoto’s power harassment has led to a constant change of on-site managers, and that eight managers have so far resigned one after another.

Eight managers have quit one after another.

The article reported that “eight managers have quit one after another.

No hint of legal action, etc.

President Ito says that it is possible that Hashimoto did what he did because he himself was strictly responsible for the staff, and that Hashimoto himself never power-harasses his managers. Although quite lengthy, he does not mention the number of managers who have resigned.

Furthermore.

Even if we refute the article’s discrepancy in content, we are usually met with the response, “We have absolute confidence in our coverage,” and if we refute anything this time as well, we may receive such a response from the other party, which could lead to a pointless argument. We will end our rebuttal at this time as follows: ……

He said he would end his rebuttal with the following statement.

The article in Bunshun was not a direct comment from the victim, but the testimony of a person involved. However, if there are reports like this, there is a possibility that some former managers will have flashbacks and report to the weekly magazines, saying, “I was also in pain. If there is any evidence, such as a line of communication or audio recordings of power harassment, there is a possibility that some publishing company will buy it. Looking at the document written by President Ito, it seems as if he is afraid of the “second and third arrow” reports without any hint of legal action,” said a women’s magazine reporter.

On the other hand, a job posting for Hashimoto’s firm, Discovery Next, was posted on the job site “doda. The posting period is from October 17 to November 13, which means that the company is currently in the middle of recruiting.

Annual salary at the time of entry into the company is “2.4 million yen and up.”

The page has a large photo of Kanna Hashimoto

A large photo of Kanna Hashimoto appears on the page, and it says, “Due to business expansion, we are hiring a large scale of 10 new employees.

It is true that Kanna Hashimoto is a busy woman.

It is true that the busy Kanna Hashimoto’s agency may need a lot of human resources. However, the company profile says that the number of employees is 15. Such a small company is planning to increase the number of employees by 10 at once.

Looking at the terms and conditions of the job offer, it says that inexperienced workers will receive a monthly salary of 185,000 yen or more. Tokyo’s “minimum wage by region,” which is set by prefecture, was revised to 1,163 yen on October 1 of this year. According to the Tokyo Labor Bureau, this translates into a monthly salary of approximately 200,000 yen. Hashimoto’s office states that she will receive two bonuses, and her annual salary at the time of joining the company is “2.4 million yen and up,” so she is “just about safe.

Hashimoto’s office says that he receives two bonuses and that his annual salary at the time of joining the company is from 2.4 million yen, which is “just barely enough. In the past, an employee of a well-known agency once sued the company, claiming that his monthly overtime workload exceeded the death line. I don’t know about Ms. Hashimoto’s office, but it is a common vicious cycle in the entertainment industry for people to enter easily thinking they can get close to the celebrity of their dreams, only to quit soon after because the work is too hard,” said a person involved in the entertainment industry.

Many young people may dream of the “glittering” world of show business and jump into it. However, “admiration” alone is not enough, as evidenced by the fact that, for whatever reason, managers in Hashimoto’s office are quitting one after another and hiring large numbers of new employees.
