Supervised by First Compass LLC, the book “2025 Labor Law Amendments Guide [Preliminary Edition]” will be published by Rodo Shimbunsha on July 14, 2025.
This edition reflects the 2025 legal amendments recently enacted by the Japanese Diet and is an essential reference for HR and labor personnel, as well as business executives.
About the Book
This book begins with a concise overview of the Labor Policy Comprehensive Promotion Act, the Act on Securing Equal Opportunity and Treatment between Men and Women in Employment, the Act on Promotion of Women’s Participation and Advancement in the Workplace, and the Industrial Safety and Health Act. It then clearly explains the key points and background of the 2025 amendments, organized by topic for easy reference. The book also includes a side-by-side comparison of the old and new provisions in the appendix, making it an essential reference for practitioners.
In particular, it covers measures to address customer harassment—a topic frequently raised by our clients—and we hope it will serve as a useful resource for companies considering their own responses.
