Training on harassment delivered by a certified social insurance and labour consultant
Today, at a training session for administrative scriveners, I attended a training session on harassment led by a certified social insurance and labour consultant. Although I have attended training sessions on similar topics many times before at work, hearing the subject from the perspective of a certified social insurance and labour consultant has given me a new perspective.
I imagine that some of you foreign nationals working in Japan may be suffering from harassment or unfair treatment. In such cases, you can seek advice not only from your company’s legal or human resources departments but also from your prefectural Labour Bureau, so please do not suffer in silence—seek help.
In addition, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare also operates a General Labour Advice Centre, where advice is available in several languages.
It might also be worth consulting a solicitor, social insurance and labour consultant or administrative scrivener if you know one. As an administrative scrivener myself, I would like to offer support to foreign nationals.
