Research Abstract |
This study has clarified that deficit of care provider is expanded due to demographic change. In Japan, because of the abundant potential care provider, deficit of care is denied. However, foreign residents often work as careworkers and internationalization of carework has been made progress. Japan has been receiving careworkers under Economic Partnership Agreement while other Asian major countries under bilateral labor agreements. Sending policies are getting mainstreamed in recent years because remittance has become a stable source of foreign currency. However, sending policies might not be sustainable considering demographic change of sending countries. To prevent from further health human resource exploitation, multilateral collaboration and coordination would be required in the long run. Marriage migration is another aspect of care migration in that quite a large number of marriage migrants, particularly Japan, Korea and Taiwan take the role of care provider at home and at institution. In the social integration policy, marriage migrants are one of the target groups of job retraining to be a careworker in institutions. Therefore, not only labor migrants but also foreign residents are integrated in the care labor market to compensate for the widening care labor market in developed countries.
