[Category: Condition]
・Officer: A full-time officer whose remuneration is equal to or exceeds a certain amount
・Japanese employees: Those who are not part-time workers or other short-term workers
・Foreign employee: A person who is not a part-time worker or other short-term worker and whose status of residence is not "Specified Skills," "Technical Intern Training," or "Specified Activities (scheduled to transition to Specified Skills, etc.)."

<employee>
In principle, "full-time" under the Specified Skills System means working at least 5 days a week and at least 217 days a year, with a weekly working time of at least 30 hours.
Employees who work at only one place of business applying for employment and who meet the definition of full-time employment above will be counted as "full-time employees."
This standard is set out on page 42 of the Immigration Bureau's "Operational Guidelines for Accepting specified skilled workers" and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism also adopts a similar interpretation.
*If a Japanese national is employed on a fixed-term basis, he/she can be counted if he/she meets the above conditions and the remuneration of the Japanese national employed on a fixed-term basis is equal to or exceeds the minimum wage.

<board member>
Being registered as an officer alone does not count as a full-time employee.
Unlike employees, directors are not obligated to work the hours set by the general company. Therefore, they cannot be defined as "full-time" like employees, so whether they can be counted as full-time is determined based on whether the standard monthly remuneration stated in the "Notice of Standard Remuneration for Health Insurance and Employees' Pension Insurance Insured Person" is an amount that can be considered as working full-time.

All employees, except for business owners, are required to enroll in social insurance (including National Health Insurance for Construction Workers).
