“Specified Skilled Worker” is a status of residence created in 2019 to resolve Japan’s serious labor shortage.
Unlike traditional “technical intern training”, trainees have a certain level of expertise and skills,It is possible to accept foreign human resources who can be expected to work immediately.
This page provides information on everything from the overview of the system to the benefits of hiring it.We will explain the points that corporate managers should know.
There are two types of specific skills: “No. 1” and “No. 2,” and it is common to accept “Specific Skills No. 1” first.
| item | Specific skill No. 1 | Specified Skills No. 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Period of stay | Up to 5 years in total | indefinitely |
| skill level | Passed the Specified Skills No. 1 evaluation test or successfully completed technical training | Passed the Specified Skills No. 2 evaluation test or have a certain level of practical experience as a supervisor |
| accompanying family | basically not accepted | Possible (spouse, child) |
| support obligation | “Support” from the accepting company or registered support organization is required | No support obligation (optional by the accepting company) |
When hiring Specified Skilled Worker No. 1, companies are obligated to provide “10 support items.”As a registration support organization, Miroku Staff can handle all of these complicated tasks on your behalf.
The recruitment fee is very low at 100,000 yen, but will there be any additional costs later?
The recruitment fee is 100,000 yen (excluding tax) only once.
There are no other initial fees to pay to us.
However, actual fees for the administrative scrivener involved in applying for residence status will be required separately.
What nationality can you introduce me to?
From among the 30,000 people registered as temporary workers, we can introduce you to multinational human resources such as Nepal, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Myanmar.
We are especially strong in partnering with local schools in South Asia (Nepal, etc.).
What is the difference between specific skill No. 1 and No. 2?
The main differences are in “period of stay” and “accompaniment of family members”.
Specified Skilled Worker No. 1 has a total period of stay of up to 5 years and is basically unable to bring his or her family with him, whereas Specified Skilled Worker No. 2 has no renewal period for his or her period of stay and can be accompanied by his or her family.
