Actual Fukushima worker Happy11311 is concerned about the shortage of nuclear workers.
Decommissioning of nuclear plant is estimated to take decades.
He tweeted like these below,,
やっぱ1Fの収束作業に従事している二次以下の下請け企業はどこの会社も人集めに苦労してるみたいでし。事故当初のような高額手当て？も今はないし、ともすれば除染作業より安い作業員もいるでし。東電や元請け一次企業は楽観視してるような気がするんだけど…。

All of the second sub-contract companies to work in Fukushima are struggling with collecting nuclear workers. No benefit is given unlike just after 311. Some of the nuclear workers are paid less than decontamination workers. It seems like Tepco and the first sub-contract companies don’t take the situation too seriously.

続き:去年からつぶやいてるけど、いよいよ技術の低下と作業員不足が現実になるような気がするでし。特に1F従事者はその後の仕事確保が難しい状況で下請けの中には廃業や休業が増えると思うし、実際に頭を抱えてる作業員や経営者がいるのが現実でし。

I’ve been tweeting about this since last year, but I think the shortage of skillful nuclear workers is becoming real. Especially Fukushima workers can’t get the next job because they have exceeded the yearly dose limit, more and more sub-contract companies will have to be closed. Actually some of the nuclear workers and sub-contract companies are struggling to continue working.
