BAOBAB

Working at Baobab

Baobab is aiming to realise a society where everyone is accepted as they are, and choices in life are unrestricted.
We understand and respect the circumstances and ambitions of each of the partners who work for us and, by offering a strong support system and appropriate remuneration for work done, we have created an environment in which partners can work with a strong sense of self-esteem.

Baobab Culture

Discover the things we are passionate about as we aim to create a culture in which all partners, whether in-house or located around the world, can work with pride in what they do.

  • 1.Mutual assistance (Understanding and Cooperation)

    We have established an environment in which everyone can speak freely, so no one has to carry the burden of a problem alone.
    In addition to work-related discussions, we encourage sharing daily successes and even private concerns, such as “what is the best detergent to clean a muddy baseball uniform?”. By sharing, we are able to positively support each other and offer praise where due.
    Furthermore, we believe in giving as much consideration as possible to individual circumstances. To implement this, we assign project and create support systems within the team to enable each individual to work as flexibly as they wish.

  • 2.Independence (Cheerfulness and Responses)

    Mistakes are made, that's part of life, but we never blame individuals, rather we build our operations around improving the working environment.
    We are constantly updating our annotation tools to make them easier to use, and always aim to answer questions as quickly as possible to help our partners develop into capable and independent workers.

  • 3.Pursuit of quality (Challenges and Commitment)

    When staff are faced with an unknown challenge, we make sure that they are not left to try and tackle it alone, and instead support them as a team to overcome the problem together.
    From the beginning of Baobab's founding, we knew it was important to have a relationship of mutual trust among our staff.
    Communication is rooted in each and every one of us being committed to maintaining this unwavering relationship of trust, and we are confident that the work we have assigned to staff will be completed on time, with a standard of quality to the best of their ability. If that is not possible they will inform us immediately and discuss it with us.

    It is these factors that lie behind Baobab's world-class quality deliverables. Our dedication to quality, backed by our company culture and work practices, drives customer satisfaction and increases value, which is returned to our partners (Baoparts) in the form of high earnings.

A Unique System for Ensuring Quality

Baobab is not a crowdsourcing company.
All partners (Baoparts) learn the importance of annotation work and receive training to acquire the necessary skills required to produce excellent quality work for every project they join.
Only those Baoparts who pass post-training assessments are allowed to participate on projects.
Furthermore, projects are assigned according to Baoparts' skill levels, with each Baopart undergoing project-specific training beforehand, and participation on the actual project is dependent on the successful completion of assessment tests.
In addition to this rigorous screening, Baobab also provides a safe working environment, providing support all through the training phase and projects, with thorough communication and taking each individual partner's differences and circumstances into account.

Benefits of Being a Baopart

  • Security of Long Term Employment

    Baobab offers flexible work based on individual circumstances, so staff are able to continue working with Baobab for a long time. There are also plenty of opportunities to try new things, and improve one's skills, including advancing to the position of manager.

  • Reasonable Earnings

    Baobab is committed to supplying deliverables that exceed client expectations. This drives high customer satisfaction, which is returned to our partners in the form of earnings.

Baobab Impact Story

  • Building Confidence and Embracing New Opportunities While Working Safely from Home

    Working from home provides me with the opportunity to earn an income in a safe and secure environment. I can effectively balance work, household tasks, and childcare without the stress of commuting. This employment has contributed significantly to our family’s financial stability, boosting my confidence. Additionally, through online platforms, I’ve been able to participate in international projects and uncover opportunities I never thought possible.

  • Finding the Right Work by Leveraging Individual Strengths

    One participant, who experiences right-side paralysis and short-term memory challenges due to a stroke, initially found typical annotation tasks difficult. However, with guidance and support from the project team leader, they not only completed the work but also became capable of conducting self-checks by the end. This project created opportunities for users who had previously been unable to work with computers to participate in the tasks.
