Japan to Expand Eligibility for Skilled Worker Status

Overview

The government has expanded eligibility for the Specified Skilled Worker No. 2 status of residence from 2 industries to 11. The status allows foreign nationals to work virtually indefinitely in Japan. In the second half of the program, we talk about why the Specified Skilled Worker status was created, learn about what industries are covered, and interview a worker who hopes to upgrade their status now that eligibility has expanded.
