On 8 May 2023, the Japanese government announced that it would reclassify COVID-19 as a class 5 infectious disease, which is the same classification as seasonal flu. This shift pushed consumers in Japan to go back to their pre-COVID-19 behaviours, increasing their activities outside the home. In addition to many people returning to their former social lives, numerous businesses have been encouraging employees to come back to the office to improve communication and collaboration.
