Q: Will the employment of mid-level technical workers be extended to other industries?

Answer:

On October 15, 2023, the Ministry of Labor revised the intermediate skilled work law to open up intermediate skilled general construction work, intermediate skilled forestry, animal husbandry, aquaculture and fisheries work. In the future, if another key industry is designated by the central competent authority for the target industry and agreement reached with the Ministry of Labor, there will be ongoing discussion about designating it an industry open to intermediate skilled work.
