About this page

This page reports on Ibaraki Prefecture's new reporting system for illegal foreign workers, offering informants a 10,000 yen reward. The governor emphasizes this targets illegal practices, not foreign nationals. However, local farmers reveal complicated circumstances. Seventy percent of illegal workers are agricultural employees. Hiring authorized technical trainees requires 300,000-350,000 yen upfront and over 250,000 yen monthly salary per worker. Year-round employment burden makes illegal workers seem a "necessary evil" to farmers dealing with seasonal agriculture demands.
