This research clarifies on-site measurement and outstanding issues of corporate sports from a human resources management perspective through extracting concepts from a case study of employment of top athletes by Athnavi, an employment support program managed by the Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC), as a new model of corporate sports. Semi-structured interviews were used to make coding on a word-for-word record, and qualitative analysis was conducted. As a result of coding, the major classification was divided into: (1) meaning of top athlete employment, (2) measures of human resources management and (3) problems of (2). Secondary and tertiary classifications were divided into seven and ten items, respectively. Then, a summary table of the interview results was drawn up. Examination of the table revealed that there were similarities and differences between companies with and without experience in corporate sports, while each company’s measurement of human resources management was diversified. There were no significant differences in terms of measures and problems of human resources management between companies with and without experience in corporate sports, except for one company that incorporated an Athnavi athlete into the framework of existing corporate sports management. However, a difference could emerge between these companies in the future, because the former have knowledge and know-how of human resources management for top athletes accumulated through experience, as well as former corporate sports athletes within the company organizations who can serve as role models. Moreover, two issues which likely will be solved in the future were indicated, namely; (1) operation of new human resources management for companies that do not have an existing framework for human resources management for top athletes, and (2) education of top athletes taking into account their long-term careers.
