OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Japan’s revised labor contract law went into effect from April 1st. It may not affect university faculty members immediately but in a few years time it will affect many of us. This is an opportunity to learn the three important points of the new law from a labor expert and prepare for any potential consequences. Materials in English explaining the new law will be provided. It is still not known how AGU will respond to this new law.
