Abstract

In this study, the labor shortage phenomenon appears according to the decrease in the domestic population. As a countermeasure, the purpose is to accept foreign workers and support measures for foreigners to settle in the region. Prior research and literature review on the use of foreign workers due to population decline, and data review such as press releases were conducted to examine the government’s efforts to secure foreign labor force. In order to solve the labor shortage due to population decline, the government’s efforts to secure labor force and matters for securing foreign workers were reviewed. It is very important to secure foreign workers due to the shortage of labor due to population decline. Therefore, the government presented a plan for the local settlement of foreign workers to secure labor force. Based on the cases for the temporary use of foreign workers during the COVID-19 period, the same type of visa issuance to foreign families residing in the region, continuous stay of sincere foreign workers, and family-accompanied entry are allowed. It can be said that it is a way to secure the local labor force.
