  • These workers receive wages significantly below standard rates.
  • A critical issue identified is the infringement of human rights, as illegal workers are excluded from labor law protections and social security systems.

    • Conclusions:

    • Illegal labor migration in Japan is linked to exploitation and human rights violations.
    • The current system fails to protect vulnerable undocumented workers.
    • Policy interventions are needed to address labor shortages while upholding worker rights.
