The purpose of this paper is to consider Act No.69 of June 26, 2024, on Measures to Prevent Sexual Violence against Children Conducted by Education and Childcare Business Operators, in Japan.
The Act prevents sex offenders from working as education and childcare workers, but its scope is
narrow. In addition, only a limited number of certified business operators are able to confirm to the government whether or not a worker is a sex offender.
Therefore, the author proposes to widen the scope and introduce another confirmation system and certification system that can be used by various business operators. This includes measures for sex offenders to get assistance not to commit sexual violence against children and enable them to work as education and childcare workers as well.
