Women in Japan

But that doesn't mean that all people in Japan have stood on Yumi Ishikawa's side.Some people also just think they are a wealthy woman who just acts.Others say that there are major social problems than the compulsion.Others think Yumi Ishikawa is a self -actress.

But Yumi Ishikawa didn't give up.She started a petition because she wanted politicians to work for women so that they can no longer be forced to do any dress codes.Thereupon the Japanese Ministry of Health, Work and Social Affairs actually released a draft for the definition of sexism and discrimination at work.However, it is not possible that employers cannot force their employees to wear sales shoes.

After all, the funeral home, where Yumi Ishikawa has worked, has now deleted the passage with the amount of paragraphs from his manual for employees.
