政府、育成就労巡り有識者会議　２７年導入へ詳細設計

　政府は１７日、外国人材との共生に関する関係閣僚会議を首相官邸で開き、「技能実習」に代わる外国人材受け入れ制度「育成就労」の２０２７年中のスタートに向け、有識者会議の設置を決めた。人権侵害の温床と批判された技能実習の轍（てつ）を踏まないよう専門家の知見を詳細な制度設計に反映させたい考えだ。
　席上、林芳正官房長官は「人手不足が深刻化する中で、わが国が外国人材から選ばれる国になるためには、魅力ある受け入れ制度の構築が必要不可欠だ」と強調した。（2024/12/17-08:48）

The Japanese government decided Tuesday to set up an expert panel for the introduction in 2027 of a new system to accept foreign workers.
   The government hopes to incorporate expert opinions into the details of the new system to avoid criticism similar to the existing technical trainee system, which has been accused of being a hotbed of human rights violations.
   "It is essential for Japan to create an attractive employment system for foreign workers amid a severe labor shortage," Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshimasa Hayashi said at a meeting of related ministers on the day.
   The 14-member panel will be chaired by Susumu Takahashi, chairman emeritus of Japan Research Institute Ltd. It will hold its first meeting in January.
