| English summary | Between July 4, 2023, and November 27, 2025, YKK Corporation subcontracted work related to fastening products to 21 subcontractors, including processing and inspection during manufacturing. Although YKK explained that subcontracting payments would be calculated using the formula: subcontracting fee = order unit price (set by YKK as hourly wage divided by work capacity) multiplied by order quantity, YKK unilaterally determined the payment amounts based on a higher work capacity than the actual work capacity of the subcontractors. As a result, the payments were approximately 9% to 72.5% lower than the amount that would have been paid based on actual work capacity. Some of the calculated hourly rates were below the regional minimum wage for Toyama Prefecture. After discussions with the 21 subcontractors, YKK increased the order unit prices retroactively from July 4, 2023, and paid a total of 26,546,794 yen to the subcontractors. |
