Free employment and recruitment services

Generally, when companies receive introductions for specified skilled workers, it is expected that private employment placement agencies will be involved. However, for jobs in construction work (civil engineering, architecture, and other work related to the construction, remodeling, preservation, repair, modification, destruction, or demolition of structures, or work related to the preparation for these works), general private paid employment placement agencies are not allowed to introduce jobs.
For this reason, JAC provides free recruitment services to host companies that are members of its affiliated organizations or supporting members.
