Who can tell me how much my salary can increase after I pass Japanese?

Recently, this magazine reported the hot news of Japanese proficiency test registration. The military examination includes not only campus students who are about to enter the workplace, but also a large proportion of people from the workplace. What is the relationship between language ability and salary in Japanese enterprises?

Do Japanese companies have language learning?

In the interview, the reporter learned that the motivation for employees of Japanese-funded enterprises to take the language proficiency test comes from the category of "language learning (materials)" in the salary system of Japanese-funded enterprises, that is, employees' language proficiency reaches a certain standard, and their wages will rise by one level.

Mr. Dong Weicheng, who has worked in Japanese enterprises for many years, said that language wages are very popular in Japan. Komatsu China Company, where he once worked, requires all employees to take the Japanese proficiency test. The monthly salary of those who pass the Level II proficiency test will be increased to 50 yuan, and that of those who pass the Level I proficiency test will be increased by 100 yuan.

Mr. Huang Wei, deputy director of the promotion department of Tei International Studies University, analyzed that most European and American enterprises directly linked their language ability to the positions they set up. Individuals who get the salary of this position naturally need to have corresponding language skills. When recruiting, they have screened out those whose language ability is not up to standard. Japanese corporate culture encourages employees to learn at work. After entering the company, after an individual's language ability reaches a certain level through study, his salary will be raised according to the level. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Japanese exam fever of on-the-job personnel.

Who can get the language salary?

So to what extent does the language salary of Japanese-funded enterprises play a role? What is the average language salary? The reporter conducted a small-scale survey among Chinese employees of Japanese enterprises.

The survey results show that not all Japanese-funded enterprises in China have language wages. Relatively speaking, language wages are the most popular among Japanese enterprises in Guangzhou. According to the reporter's understanding, Japanese-funded enterprises in Shanghai clearly stipulate that there are language wages, such as Suoguang Electronics Co., Ltd., Nissin Food Shanghai Co., Ltd. and Letterpress Printing Co., Ltd., and the increase ranges from 50 yuan to 600 yuan. A small number of Japanese companies provide employees with incentives of "getting a salary increase of 1 yuan after passing the competency test". However, some Japanese-funded enterprises with a high degree of international management, such as Sony, follow the example of European and American countries and integrate language wages into the basic salary of posts.

Japanese employees generally report that the Japanese proficiency certificate is very important for the development of Japanese enterprises, and passing the Japanese proficiency test will be of great help to their promotion in the company. In addition, if the Japanese level meets the requirements, the opportunity of training abroad in the company will also be given priority.

Japanese test is still a hot topic in the workplace.

According to statistics, there are currently more than 10000 Japanese enterprises in the Yangtze River Delta, including nearly 5000 in Shanghai. This huge number has also spawned a large number of China enterprises that have business dealings with Japanese enterprises, and the demand for Japanese talents is heating up.

Wei Haibo, president of Shanghai Asahi Culture and Business Training Center, said in an interview recently that the Japanese exam will be a hot spot in the future workplace training, and at the same time, "the demand for Japanese training and research is increasingly obvious." The analysis shows that this demand is related to the strategy of Japanese-funded enterprises to speed up the localization of talent management in China. Some Japanese-funded enterprises need to have certain language skills to promote China employees. For Japanese employees who want to be promoted, passing the competency test is the most direct and clear way to prove it.
