In the ongoing discussion about workplace abuse, the media has advanced yet another new term. “Black baito” modifies the already popular phrase “black kigyō,” which are companies that manipulate or ignore labor standards in order to get employees to work overtime without pay. “Baito” is an abbreviation of arbeit, the German word that in Japan stands for part-time work, so “black baito” refers specifically to part-time workers.
