Since the "recruiting media" that provides job information on websites is spreading and there is concern about an increase in troubles, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's council has sent companies to the country to create an environment where they can find jobs with peace of mind. We have decided to put together a report that requires notification.

"Job Media" is a service that provides job information for companies on websites and SNS to those looking for a job.



According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, the number of job offers posted in FY2019 was 17.68 million, which is about 3.4 times that of 10 years ago (FY2009).



According to a June survey conducted by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, "Hello Work" accounted for 16.2% and "Recruiting Media" accounted for 27.1%.



On the other hand, there is a concern that the number of "recruiting media" will increase due to the trouble of posting job information whose wages and working conditions are different from the actual ones.



For this reason, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has continued discussions at a council made up of representatives of labor and management.



The draft report states that companies should be obliged to report "recruitment media" to the national government and that a system should be put in place to grasp the actual situation.



In addition, if it is malicious, such as posting lie job information or using personal information for purposes other than the intended purpose, the system should be reviewed so that improvement or service suspension can be ordered based on the law.



The Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare plans to submit an amendment to the Employment Security Act to the ordinary session of the Diet next year based on the report, which is expected to be approved by the council meeting on the 8th.
