Framing construction work at the scene
Engage in work under the direction of the foreman Specified Skilled Worker
"If there's anything you don't understand, just ask me," says the reliable foreman, Yukawa (left).
This time, we spoke with three people, Mr. Son and Mr. Luan from Specified Skilled Worker (i), and Mr. Touong from Technical Intern Training about their work and life in Japan.
He said that he was happy that he was able to become a Specified Skills and was entrusted with the difficult work of Framing construction work, and he said that he was studying to be able to read drawings and calculate more. If you can build R walls and stairs, will you be recognized as a full-fledged person? These are three people who are impressive in their smiling faces.
Mr. Song
Luan
Touon
Deputy Director of Construction DepartmentOur company has been accepting Technical Intern Training students and Specified Skilled Worker since 2013, currently there are 21 Vietnamese people working. Vietnam is a country known for being pro-Japanese, and I personally have the impression that there are many serious people. In fact, they are working hard to learn the work as quickly as possible in the field. Because of this attitude, the trust of the foremen is strong, and there are many voices saying, "I want them to be in my team."
In particular, the three of Luan, Son, and Touong learned their skills quickly, and they were able to do about 80% of the formwork work by themselves. I can't speak Japanese perfectly, but they try to memorize each of them, and their communication is conveyed to a certain extent through gestures. They work really well compared to Japan craftsmen, so I look forward to their future success.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, we deepened friendships by having employees participate in events such as potato digging and New Year's gatherings held within the company, as well as regular outdoor barbecues and Genghis Khan dinners.
They live in a dormitory, so they are often alone, especially during New Year's holidays. Communication through events also helps to smoothen work, so I hope to be able to meet up again soon.
Dinner with work colleagues
It is very important to understand the differences in customs. For example, in Vietnam, it is absolutely taboo to touch someone else's head. "The head is where the sacred spirit resides," and touching it is not acceptable for any reason.
However, there is no problem if you share such information within your company in advance. We recommend that you research the culture and customs of the other country in advance.
Apparently, many Vietnamese people have cheerful personalities.
