Proud Partners Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, CEO: Ryuji Suzuki) will hold an emergency online seminar for food service companies from 13:00 to 14:00 on Thursday, April 10, 2026, following the Ministry of Justice's announcement that the suspension of the acceptance of Specified Skilled Worker (i) in the food service industry will be implemented after April 13, 2026.
Participation in this online seminar is free of charge. We will explain the overall system along with specific methods to continue securing human resources without stopping new hiring, even under the situation where the "suspension measure for the acceptance of No. 1 specified skilled foreigners in the food service field" has been taken.
At the same time, we will focus on practical responses that can be executed on the ground in the food service industry and present actions that food service companies should take immediately.
[Seminar Schedule]
1. Institutional background of the suspension of acceptance of Specified Skilled Worker (i) in the food service sector and future outlook
2. Cases and conditions under which recruitment can be continued in the food service sector
3. What is the next step for Specified Skilled Worker (i) personnel already working in the food service sector?
4. Specific countermeasures that your company should take
[Background of Emergency Seminar]
Against the backdrop of a chronic labor shortage, the utilization of specified skilled personnel has rapidly advanced in the food service sector, and many success stories, such as the stabilization of store operations, have been accumulated on the ground. At the same time, it is becoming a common situation where "recruitment design premised on specified skills" is becoming general.
Therefore, our company considered it an urgent task to present practical responses that food service companies can take in response to the government's policy of "measures to suspend the acceptance of Specified Skilled Worker (i) in the food service industry" under such circumstances.
