Thai workers in Japan boost skills

To expand the country’s labor trade industry and increase employment opportunities, the Labour Ministry is ready to assist younger Thai workers in Japan in different industries.

Labour Minister Pipat Ratchakitprakarn stated on Thursday that the government is urging employees to apply to Japan’s Special Skilled Worker ( SSW) program, which places persons immediately into work without any prior training.

Those who have an SSW card are granted citizenship status, which even entitles them to work in 12 industry sectors where there are currently shortages.

These include medical care, building upkeep, system parts manufacturing and electrical work, construction, shipbuilding, automobile maintenance, aviation, accommodation, agriculture, fisheries, food service, and food manufacturing.

Men aged 18- 30 who are in excellent health and educated to at least Matthayom 6 ( Grade 12 ) you use.

Selected candidates will receive an 80, 000- yen ( 19, 000 baht ) salary in the first month. From the second month onwards, Japan’s minimum wage of 41, 000 baht a month ( without overtime ) will be paid.

The employers will pay for accommodation and utility costs throughout the deal.

At the end of the training, participants will receive a job certificate and a 600, 000- yen ( 142, 659 baht ) severance fund to help them pursue their future careers.

This is a good place to start if you want to encourage new workers to advance their skills while also boosting Thailand’s labor imports to Japan, according to Mr. Pipat.
