Japan Enacts New Foreign Worker Program on Friday to Address Labor Crisis
Jun 14, 2024, 02:47 AM
Japan has enacted new legislation to address its labor crisis by overhauling its foreign worker program. The revised laws, passed by Japan's parliament on Friday, aim to replace the controversial foreign trainee program with a new system designed to attract and retain foreign talent. This initiative is part of Japan's broader strategy to position itself competitively in the regional and international job market. The new foreign worker program is expected to set off a scramble for talent, as Japan seeks to enroll all foreign residents and address rights concerns associated with deportation rules for asylum seekers.
