View details * Background of the event *
We will explain the latest trends in legal affairs and labor management related to foreign employment through a Zoom webinar.
Background of the webinar
The amendment to the Immigration Control and Refugee Act passed on June 14, 2024, along with the creation of a new status of residence, “Development Worker,” has also made tougher penalties for the crime of promoting illegal employment. Previously, imprisonment for up to 3 years and a fine of up to 3 million yen has been changed to
imprisonment for up to 5 years and a fine of up to 5 million yen. As a result, companies that employ foreign nationals are required to take greater measures to prevent the employment of illegal workers and overwork. The purpose of this webinar is to provide information on the legal risks and impacts on foreign employment when companies are accused of illegal employment, and countermeasures.
We will also have a member of the human resources department of a major restaurant chain speak about the background to the introduction of VisaMane and its effects.
We would appreciate it if you could join us.

*Comment from Professor Sugita*
“In line with the creation of the training and employment system, the penalties for promoting illegal employment (Article 73-2 of the Immigration Control Act) have been increased from 3 years or less to 5 years in prison, and the fine has been increased from 3 million yen or less to 5 million yen or less. The importance of compliance regarding foreign employment is expected to increase dramatically in the future as the number of foreign employees increases. I hope I can deliver it.”
