ILO's Director-General visits a 'Hello-Work' employment centre in Japan

On his first trip to Japan as ILO's Director-General, Guy Ryder visited one of the Japanese Public Employment Security (PES) Centres, also known as a 'Hello Work' centre, which is part of a network that serves 170,000 people each day nationwide. He met with the staff of their largest 'Hello-Work' office in Tokyo and saw how the employment security system worked from the job seeker's point of view.
