In preparation for the legal amendments effective October 2026, companies are strongly required to implement measures against "customer harassment (kasu-hara)" and "recruitment-related sexual harassment." Failure to implement such measures can lead directly to management risks, including public naming by authorities, damages for breach of safety considerations, and serious turnover issues.

This seminar will provide a thorough explanation of key points for developing internal regulations and building manuals based on the latest draft guidelines, tailored to practical business needs.

Background of the Seminar In recent years, unreasonable demands from customers (customer harassment) and harassment toward job seekers using positions of authority have become serious social issues. In response, the government has solidified its policy to mandate countermeasures starting October 2026. In an era of deepening labor shortages, "companies that cannot protect their employees" will not be chosen. This seminar presents specific prescriptions for protecting brand value and building sustainable organizations.

Key Learning Points - Avoiding Administrative Risks: Essential practices to avoid public naming. - Internal Regulations & Manual Development: Schedules and specific proposals to meet the October 2026 implementation deadline. - On-site Judgment Criteria: Where is the line between "legitimate complaints" and "customer harassment"? - Legal Defense: Establishing structures to avoid being charged with breach of duty of safety.
