A company that mediated about 230 Vietnamese to a farmer in Nagano prefecture, which had been in shortage due to the effects of the new coronavirus, illegally exploited more than 20 million yen from the wages paid by the farmer to the Vietnamese. Documents were sent as a result.

The documents were sent to three people, including the representative employees of "Huang An", a Vietnamese mediation company in Osaka.



According to the Labor Standards Inspection Office, from May to August, the three people mediated about 230 Vietnamese to about 120 farmers in the Saku area of ​​Nagano prefecture, and the total wages paid by the farmers was about 21 million yen. There is a suspicion of violating the Labor Standards Act for exploiting.



Regarding "Huang An", the Nagano Prefectural Police arrested representative employees for illegally working Vietnamese technical intern trainees at a farmhouse, and in the process of the investigation, the damage this time was also revealed. ..



The Saku area is one of the leading producers of leafy vegetables in Japan, but at that time there was a serious labor shortage due to the influence of the new corona, so police and others sent trainees who were also in need in corona to farmers. , We are proceeding with the elucidation of the actual situation, assuming that we were illegally profiting.



The Labor Standards Inspection Office has not disclosed the approval or disapproval of the representative employees.
