Under the current circumstances, there is no system to follow up on former yakuza after they find work, so companies shoulder high risks by taking in former gang members. It is imperative to cultivate specialized human resources who will support gang members to leave gangs and find employment.

There are plenty of truck driver jobs or farming positions or tout jobs!

Most of them aren’t educated that’s why they joined the mafia. But there is work if you cover them tattoos and put on a happy smiley face!

What kind of risks?

They kick the boss in ass or steal the coffee machine?

Cultivate human resources? What does that even mean? Yeuurch!

Leaving that aside, generally I'd have thought that if a yakuza member takes that first step to walk away from their gang, they have taken the first massive, brave step, and in most cases that should be clear evidence that they are committed to making a new life outside the yakuza. If anything, I am guessing here that their values, such as loyalty, obedience, putting the org above themselves, should make them a perfect fit for traditional Japanese orgs. If they are more of a freewheeling rebel type (doubt there are many of them that would have hacked it as a yakuza for long), they might fit in with a younger, more pioneering type of start up that wants to take risks.
