Japan's Labor Market is Changing : Effects of Population Decline

Описание: Japan is facing a looming labour shortage, and the cause is clear: a rapidly declining population. With a falling birth rate and an aging population, Japan’s workforce is shrinking, creating significant challenges for businesses, industries, and the economy as a whole.

In this video, we explore some of these challenges the labour market is facing and how Japan is tackling these challenges. Japan is already changing. We’ll briefly go over the social and economic consequences of an aging society, how companies are adapting (or struggling to adapt), and what steps Japan might take to address this crisis. From automation and immigration policies to the future of the economy, this video sheds light on one of the most pressing issues Japan faces today.
