On November 11, the government announced a new economic package, which included the establishment of a system that allows non-regular employees to advance their careers while working.
Specifically, it means starting vocational training that allows non-regular employees to engage in face-to-face and online reskilling, including at night and on holidays.
The training will include learning support and career counseling, so the total is expected to be about 2 hours.
The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare hopes to start a trial project within the fifth fiscal year of Reiwa and verify the effect.
In addition
