Japan looking to hire 500 construction workers

VOV.VN - Concerned about a shortage of construction workers for an expected building boom ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Japan is looking to tap into Vietnamese labour to bridge the gap.

Under a new program just announced by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (Molisa), the Japanese government has loosened its training visa rules to allow 500 more workers with construction skills into the country. 

The program is open to construction workers who have a permanent residence address in any of the municipalities – Bac Giang, Hanoi, Hai Duong, Thai Binh, Nam Dinh, Binh Thuan, Lao Cai, Hoa Binh, Phu Tho, Quang Ninh, Hai Phong or Quang Ngai.

Interested applicants can contact Molisa’s Centre of Overseas Labour at (04) 37346751 for assistance in completing application forms. Additional information on the program can also be obtained at
