What's It Like To Be A Foreign Worker in Japan? | CNA Correspondent

The abuse of a Vietnamese worker in the western Japanese city of Okayama sparked outrage in Japan in January 2022. The incident once again turned the spotlight on Japan's treatment of migrant workers and the decades-old Technical Intern Training Program. Its initial aim was to bring in interns, also known as technical trainees, from developing countries, mostly from Southeast Asia. They would learn new skills and when they returned to their countries, they were expected to transfer these skills to their countrymen. But that concept is hardly alive anymore. Critics say technical trainees have become a cheap source of manual labour for farms, factories and other businesses in Japan.
But for Japan to be the top choice for foreigners to work and live in, this has to change. And the Japanese people must learn to be more accommodating to those who cannot speak Japanese and are of different cultures and values. As its demographic time bomb keeps ticking, there's no other option.

    I work here in the field of software here in Japan. We have projects with top Japanese companies, so I work with Japanese and also people with different nationalities that came here for business trip. I also always attend social gatherings like sports or language practice so I had chance to meet a lot of foreigners and talk with them. Here are the common things that I always hear from foreigners and also Japanese 1. The culture is about creating and protecting their public image, so they will do it at all costs. If you notice something strange about their culture and ask them about it, they will try to cover it up 2. Foreigners that came from developing countries will be treated worse than those who came from developed country. Exploitation, bullying and harassment also occur in well-known Japanese companies, but nobody is daring to complain because of the pressure that they need to maintain the harmony of the group and their relationship with their bosses 3. The lifestyle of Japanese people are so stressful starting from a young age, so mental health is really an issue here. Some will just let their stress out of you even if you did not do anything wrong. That is why bulying and harassment is common in school and workplace. 4. They have the old mindset that the longer you work the better employee you are. It creates an image that you are so busy doing a lot of things that will contribute to the company. That is why you will encounter a lot long non-sense meetings where nothing much is being tackled. They will pretend to be busy in the morning, start actually working in the afternoon, then do overtime. Working efficiently is not much appreciated here. 5. One of the most common first impressions of foreigners that came here to Japan, then realized that it was exactly the opposite after living here long enough and being good at the language is ''Japanese are kind and polite'' These are not only for foreigners but for Half-Japanese. Even if someone looks like a Japanese, with a Japanese name, raised here in Japan, fluent in the language and completely blended into the society. The moment they knew that the person is only Half Japanese, that person will be treated differently Here are tips for people coming here: 1. If you are going for business trip for only few months, then no need to worry at all. You will experience the kindness, hospitality and politeness of people here. 2. If you are planning to work here for 1 year or more, look for companies that are dominated by foreigners, so the toxic work culture is somehow lessen 3. Make Japanese friends, especially those who have experienced living outside of Japan or have foreign friends, they are more open minded and easy to get along with 4. Forget the mindset that Japan is a perfect country and don't expect things to be fair for you. At the end of the day, we are just guests here, so we need to accept both the good sides and bad sides of the country, the people and the culture

    Agree! Even these trainees are unskilled or low skilled, they’re still human. Treat them right! They’re young kids with a lot of dreams. They come to Japan to be better, not worse! The salary in Vietnam is low which compared to Japan. However, the quality of life is much better. It’s more affordable and not high tax like Japan. Most of the Vietnamese own their own homes. If they’ve known they being bullied and beaten when they come to Japan to work. No way they’d came! Also, things are getting much better in Vietnam now. I’m a Vietnamese American. I go back and forth between US and Vietnam every year.

    Japan is incredibly popular among the young adults here in Western Europe, who overidealize it due to manga/anime. The landing can be tough, when they discover the social hardships and sometimes violence of being a low paid disposable workforce... If they don't hold a high end degree in a well sought field, they end up as underpaid English teacher assistants in schools, at best. Until recently, Japanese felt they did not need those foreigners and were doing them a favour by hosting them in their country, but they'll soon realize they have no choice if they want to keep their country running.

    It is incredibly disgusting 🤮 to see such barbaric behaviour from people, like those workers abusing their workmates in Japan. Fundamentally, bullies are people who gain pleasure in the suffering of others, their brains suffer from mild mental illnesses and mental issues. It could be anything ranging from how they were bought up, their school, family environment and friend influence etc... Or maybe they are very dissatisfied with their life and wish to release it onto others. It's very complex but generally it's because their minds are unhealthy. Japanese society has become a toxic jungle, no longer the successful and shining lighthouse in Asia, the only way to survive is to stand up and fight back. The average person finds this hard to do since they don't have the self confidence and courage but sometimes violence is the only answer. To stop a barbarian, you have to be even more barbaric, violence is the only language they understand. In the long term, the government and families should create a more friendly and harmonious environment to bring people up into healthy, stable and positive people, ok the short term, if someone bullies you, you must fight back, no matter the cost, or it'll never stop, but only get worse.

    Working environment in Japan is not of this planet. First, you have to take an interview where they will ask you redecuedelous questions like what is your blood type and what does your father do for a living. Even if you pass the interview, they will ask you to work for free for a few months, claiming we are giving you free training, so you should be happy. They will eventually pay you minimum wage and will make you work until midnight without paying any overtime. During those long hours, you are not allowed to talk, and you also have to ask for a permission to go to the toilet. They will complain if you go to the toilet "too often". One time my boss asked me to come to his office because I left my desk at 11:59, claiming that I left my desk too early for lunch. They have to explain to me that lunch break starts at 12:00. Just 1 minute, they were acting as if it's the end of the world. This is how most companies are in Japan. Do you still want to work in Japan? Of course, these agency will say this not true. But if you look at the actual numbers of karoushi (death by working 24/7) and suicide rate because of the harsh Japanese working environment is top class. In one word, Japan is a cult religion where they make you ware a old fashioned black or gray suit year around and make you work until you die. It's hard to believe Japan is considered a first world country. In fact Japan is the most backward county you will ever experience. In conclusion, if you are looking for a prison, mental institution, military environment and willing to sacrifice your health, love life, family, general well being of life, Japan is the perfect place for you!

    Hello. I am Japanese. Japanese companies easily bring in clueless young people from overseas as a solution to manpower shortage. I cannot understand the video properly because I cannot hear English, but many foreigners flee their workplaces because they cannot stand unfavorable employment contracts and poor working conditions. However, they cannot flee Japan to repay the large sums of money they paid to brokers in their home countries and eventually turn to crime to make ends meet. Many Japanese companies are exploitative, and even young people develop depression and eventually commit suicide or become NEETs. The Japanese government does not punish corporations full of crooks. It is a fact that Japan has become an unsafe immigrant nation.

    It is incredibly disgusting 🤮 to see such barbaric behaviour from people, like those workers abusing their workmates in Japan. Fundamentally, bullies are people who gain pleasure in the suffering of others, their brains suffer from mild mental illnesses and mental issues. It could be anything ranging from how they were bought up, their school, family environment and friend influence etc... Or maybe they are very dissatisfied with their life and wish to release it onto others. It's very complex but generally it's because their minds are unhealthy. Japanese society has become a toxic jungle, no longer the successful and shining lighthouse in Asia, the only way to survive is to stand up and fight back. The average person finds this hard to do since they don't have the self confidence and courage but sometimes violence is the only answer. To stop a barbarian, you have to be even more barbaric, violence is the only language they understand. In the long term, the government and families should create a more friendly and harmonious environment to bring people up into healthy, stable and positive people, ok the short term, if someone bullies you, you must fight back, no matter the cost, or it'll never stop, but only get worse. ......

    The thing is these trainees didn’t know all about the abuses and racisms min Japan. Before they came to Japan, most of them took out a loan to pay for the fees. They don’t come to Work for free. And these trainees are considered low incomes in their countries. The ones have more money and assets, they choose US, Canada, Australia, and Europe to work and live.

    I think Korea has a better foreign employment system (non skilled) than Japan. It is called the Employment Permit System It is far from perfect but at least in terms of security, freedom, and protection it is way ahead vs Japan. Both countries offer jobs that are 3D (dangerous, difficult, dirty and sometimes delayed salary). And I wouldnt say that there’s no abuse or discriminations. That still exists in general esp in the SME’s which make up the bulk of employers. But there are laws placed to protect foreign workers. I think Japan should study the Korea’s EPS. Innovate the system to make it better.

    It is incredibly disgusting 🤮 to see such barbaric behaviour from people, like those workers abusing their workmates in Japan. Fundamentally, bullies are people who gain pleasure in the suffering of others, their brains suffer from mild mental illnesses and mental issues. It could be anything ranging from how they were bought up, their school, family environment and friend influence etc... Or maybe they are very dissatisfied with their life and wish to release it onto others. It's very complex but generally it's because their minds are unhealthy. Japanese society has become a toxic jungle, no longer the successful and shining lighthouse in Asia, the only way to survive is to stand up and fight back. The average person finds this hard to do since they don't have the self confidence and courage but sometimes violence is the only answer. To stop a barbarian, you have to be even more barbaric, violence is the only language they understand. In the long term, the government and families should create a more friendly and harmonious environment to bring people up into healthy, stable and positive people, ok the short term, if someone bullies you, you must fight back, no matter the cost, or it'll never stop, but only get worse. .

    I’m on Japanese. In Japan, prices and apartments prices are really reasonable now. For example, in the USA eggs are 4 dollars but in Japan, 1 dollar. But be careful, also salaries are cheaper there. Foreigners can get job as an English teacher but you should be able to speak Japanese. Because a lot of foreigners are trying to become English teacher but the positions are less. Managers choose foreigners who can speak Japanese if there are foreigners who can speak Japanese and foreigners who can't speak Japanese. And you should know Japanese manners. But if you are programmer maybe get job without Japanese because there are not so much programmers in Japan. If you have online job in your country and live in Japan, it really better.

Also no Over time pay, comes included in your paycheck, I believe its like 1/2 hours a day. Sometimes you do not need to OT but other times, 4-5 Hours of OT a day is normal. The pay is sht but you gain a lot in return. Super safe to live here, everything is clean, piece of mind. People are nice to you n sht.

The more you move up in skill the better pay, but you also have to start from somewhere. Labor fees will vary depending on the job market, and skill set of the individual. Even if you are a college degree. In the field you are a student if you are not knowledgeable in swinging a hammer. Kind of gets what I mean.

    Bruh, if you majoring Japanese Studies in Vietnam they have to pass N2 for graduate. While in Indonesia they have to pass N3. But its likely because some company for example the construction company does not required Japanese Language Proficiency for its intern. Besides Vietnamese, there are many Indonesian people who work there without knowing basic Japanese properly and treated poorly. Which forced them to run away from the company.
