"Life Troubles Support" from daily life consultations to personal compensation cases

Two services to respond to Specified Skilled Worker 's daily troubles and consultations

"I lost the key to my room", "the water in the toilet doesn't stop", "I injured someone else with a bicycle", etc., while living in Japan as an Specified Skilled Worker (i), you may encounter unexpected problems.

JAC offers two services to help you deal with such everyday troubles.
The "Emergency Service" covers problems with keys and plumbing, while the "Personal Liability Insurance" covers cases where compensation is required, such as when you injure someone or damage their property.

Emergency response service (24 hours a day, 365 days a year) and personal liability insurance (limit of coverage: 100 million yen)

Furthermore, to address concerns such as "I don't know who to talk to" due to language and cultural differences, we have set up a dedicated support desk that supports 13 languages.
We can easily handle not only emergency plumbing and lock problems, but also small consultations about everyday life. You no longer have to bother your boss or colleagues on your days off.

Since this service is operated by the acceptance fee as a source of funds, there is no new financial burden on either the receiving company or the Specified Skilled Worker (i).
Please feel free to use it if you have any problems.
