STARTO Inc., a renowned Japanese tech company, has raised a flag of concern pertaining to coworking spaces. Their warning comes amidst a steep rise in the usage of such spaces in Japan's booming tech industry. The company aims at educating employers and employees about safety precautions and etiquette inside coworking environments while addressing the need for revisited policies in shared workspaces.

Coworking spaces are a rapidly growing trend in Japan, particularly amongst tech startups and digital nomads. Japanese culture highly values respect for shared spaces and the community's general welfare. STARTO's initiative aligns with these social values, underlining the need for proper etiquettes and security measures in these workspaces.

In the US and EU, coworking spaces are also widely popular. Just like STARTO in Japan, many companies, including WeWork, have initiated movements to maintain order and security within shared workspaces. Often, these movements include campaigns, educational resources on safety and sharing spaces etiquette.
