In a survey of Japanese managers with foreign subordinates, 34.3 percent of the 872 respondents reported that they feel intense stress because of the challenges the situation presents.
Moreover, 17.2 percent of the managers of foreign workers said that if they could, they would like to quit their jobs immediately.
Foreign workers are very self-assertive (46.1 percent)2.
On the other hand, there’s often a perception, and not always without a degree of truth, that foreign employees are likely to leave Japan in the future.
While 39.9 percent of managers of foreign part-timers felt intense stress, of 39.1 percent of managers of interns/trainees, only 30.9 percent felt that way about full-fledged foreign employees.
