Major publishers Shogakukan and Kobunsha failed to clearly state transaction terms such as payment amounts to freelance writers and others to whom they outsourced work, so the Japan Fair Trade Commission has issued a recommendation calling for measures to prevent recurrence.
去年11月にフリーランスを保護する法律が施行されてから勧告が出されるのは初めてです。
This is the first time a recommendation has been issued since the law to protect freelancers was enacted in November last year.
