About Specified Skilled Workers (SSW)
‘Specified Skilled Worker’ (SSW) is a new residency status that was
introduced by the Government of Japan in April 2019, under which
aspiring Indian youth can take up a job and stay in Japan. Japan
introduced ‘Specified Skilled Worker’ to address the severe labor
shortages in Japan by accepting foreign human resources with specific
expertise and skills. India and Japan signed a Memorandum of
Cooperation in January 2021 for the implementation of ‘Specified
Skilled Worker’ between India and Japan.
