Summary

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare posted a government announcement (dated 2026-10-07) giving notice of the 38th meeting of the expert committee under the review board that certifies specified asbestos-affected construction workers and others. The metadata does not include the meeting date, agenda, or any substantive content.

Business Impact

This appears to be a meeting notice rather than a new rule, so it may have little direct effect on businesses. Organizations connected to construction-sector asbestos compensation could possibly find the committee's activities relevant.
