At the Council on Economic and Fiscal Policy, Prime Minister Kishida expressed his intention to improve the employment system so that workers can fully demonstrate their abilities regardless of age or working style.
At the meeting on the 13th, opinions were exchanged on themes such as social security system reform centered on employment.
Among these, private lawmakers will strengthen employment safety nets, such as relaxing the requirements for non-regular workers to receive unemployment benefits and enhancing vocational training, and if they are willing to work, improve their skills regardless of employment form. We recommended that we work to achieve this.
In response to this, Prime Minister Kishida said, "Regardless of work styles such as age, gender, regular and non-regular work styles, we will promote the development of an environment where people can use capacity development and safety nets and fully demonstrate their potential, and work styles will be changed by the system. We will review the social security system according to changes in working styles, not changes. "
After that, we accelerated discussions toward the compilation of the "Honebuto no Hoshi" around the summer, and instructed the relevant ministers to promptly formulate concrete measures.
