Capcom announces multiple changes to the ‘nurturing relationship with employees‘. Part of the adjustments is a salary increase of 30 percent on average. In addition, as of April 1, a bonus system will be introduced that should reflect the performance of the company more than before.

In addition, Capcom is making changes to human resources. This will consist of several parts, including a department that facilitates communication between the board and employees. There will also be a Health and Productivity Management Department, which focuses on improving the working environment. Capcom further states that it wants to improve productivity by hiring new staff and offering training.
