    Obviously Japan has got their employment rights policies more correct than the US but there are some trade-offs to having policies like this. The main one would be that employers are less likely to “give a chance” to a candidate who has limited experience entering an industry if it is difficult to fire them when if it doesn’t work out.

    Economists have pointed to this being a factor in high youth unemployment rates in countries like France and Spain.

      Indeed. Every job requires experience, but you have no chance of earning that experience unless you already have it, so no there’s way of getting that job.
