Japan is doing everything it can to bring skilled workers into the country.

Among all countries, Japan stands, seemingly years ahead of the rest of the world. Having made significant contributions to the technological sector, Japan is recognized for its ability to perfectly embody the maxim, “the future is now.”  Its forward-thinking culture has rendered it an innovation powerhouse. 

However, in recent years, Japan seems to be doing great in all but one aspect of economic advancement—the manpower game. In a recent study conducted by Recruit Works Institute, results show that the country is set to face a shortage of over 11 million skilled workers by 2040.

The Causes of Japan’s Limited Skilled Workers Supply

What Japan is facing right now is more than just a shortage. An amalgam of structural factors forms the main parts of the issue at hand, but two distinct issues are identified as the primary root causes of the lack of skilled workers in the country.

Declining Birthrate

Albeit not a new issue, the low fertility rate in Japan has been a big blow to their economy. Just last year, the country recorded an all-time low in births. Compared to their average of 1.30 million childbirths per year, 2022 recorded just 1.26 million, which is at least 300,000 short of people in the population.

The combination of Japan’s low fertility rate and aging population has resulted in a serious shortage of skilled workers. Worse, this is poised to have a significant impact on the country’s economy in the coming years. 

However, to address this pressing issue, Japan forged a solution in the composition of a reliable force of skilled workers, by establishing what they call the Specified Skilled Worker Program. 

In recent years, talk of enabling a longer-term residency to a wider scope of migrants has also been approved.

Enter the Filipino Skilled Workers

As Japan faces a severe shortage of skilled workers, it has looked beyond its borders to bridge the said gap. Among countries that provide a solution to this problem, the Philippines has emerged as one of the best bets for Japan. Here’s why:

2. Language Proficiency and Cultural Affinity

One of the key advantages that Filipino skilled workers have to offer is their ability to speak the English language proficiently. This makes them easy to communicate with, as well as be culturally agile. Additionally, Filipinos exhibit a strong work ethic and respect for authority, which makes them a suitable fit for Japan’s values and work culture.
