Japan: End Workplace Harassment, Violence
(Tokyo) – The Japanese government should reform its laws and policies to end violence and harassment in the workplace, Human Rights Watch said today in a letter to Japan’s Labor Policy Council. The council, an advisory body with representatives of workers, employers, and the public interest sector, is considering a first draft of proposals from the Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry on measures to respond to harassment at work. A decision is expected by the end of 2018.
