Foreigners Employment Service Centre

Postby GomiGirl » Wed May 28, 2008 3:52 pm

Recently there have been lots of job and visa questions. I was poking around the J-Government websites and found a great reference for people who are serious about finding out the real story - straight from the government rather than anecdotally from a website.

Foreigners Employment Service Centre

The Tokyo Employment Center for Foreigners in Tokyo is a public employment security service office managed by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, which provides information necessary for foreigners and employment counseling and job placement services, and information about hiring non-Japanese and support services for employers. Please visit the center for useful information.


Some great little gems hidden in this oddly formatted site:

Check the "For Foreigners wishing to work in Japan" section.
When you look for a job in Japan, please contact the Public Employment Security Offices (PESO).


I only skim read this, but it seems that certain foreigners are eligible for unemployment benefits!! :eek2:

But there are some handy downloadable PDF files for illustrating the standard Japanese resume with English notes on what each section is for. And also how the job listings are organised at PESO.

They cover traineeships as well as legal aspects, labour laws, immigration, insurance and interpreter services.

Other languages like Chinese, Tagalog, Korean, Thai, Indonesian and Vietnamese as well as English linked from TESCF home page

Now please don't say the information is not around. This took a 5 minutes google search to find. If your question hasn't been answered to your satisfaction, maybe you are wanting to do something that is not within the government guidelines.. so - DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER.
