I just want to chime in here: seishein(full time permanent) workers over here get a lot of protection mandated by law. For example if my company closes, they have to pay me 3 months of my salary while I find a new job, and I'm quite difficult to fire.
Infact one of the old chef's just stopped turning up and said I needed a break, they had to pay him 3 months salary still.
Edit for more info:
That is why there has been a huge reduction in the past 10 years (this is anecdotal evidence I have heard by word of mouth), of hiring staff as seishein.
One school I worked at refused to put staff on as seishein, then myself and a few others left due to this, and they changed their practices.

- mac01021 10y agoIf your company closes? Like if they go out of business? What if they don't have the money?
- kartan 10y ago> What if they don't have the money? I don't know how it is in Japan. But in Spain, there is a fund, paid by all companies, that is used in this situation. It works like a mandatory insurance. If your company goes under, your employees get the money from the fund. The fund name is FOGASA (FOndo de GArantia SAlarial), it means salary guarantee fund.
