[Background and Overview of the Event]
On March 27, 2026, the Immigration Services Agency announced that the number of foreign residents with Specified Skilled Worker (i) status in the food service field is approaching the upper limit of 50,000. Along with this, it is expected that "new acceptance," such as calling from overseas and changing status within Japan, will be suspended in principle from April 13 onwards. This situation does not mean a mere temporary stop. Japan's state as a "country/company of choice" in the labor market is currently being questioned. In this seminar, based on this latest notice, we will consider together with everyone how the future market will shift, and what essential measures companies should take before falling into a "scramble for domestic talent."
