Safety Class for Foreign Residents
With the rise in the number of foreign residents in Hiroshima City, there is increased risk that such residents will be involved in traffic accidents or become the victims of crimes.
There are also those who may not have any bad intentions, but because they are not familiar with Japan's customs or rules, they unwittingly cause problems or get involved in trouble or other dangerous situations.
To avoid such dangers and ensure that foreign residents can live safely as members of the community, the Safety Class for Foreign Residents will be held to provide an opportunity to learn about rules related to daily life and traffic safety. The class will be taught by Hiroshima Prefectural police officers, from Hiroshima Central Police Station and others. They will provide clear explanations of the daily living and traffic rules that are different from those in the residents' home countries and require attention when living in Japan.
The class is not all serious―there are some fun tours too.
There will be a tour of the Emergency Number 110 Communications Control Office in the police station.
This office has a large monitor that displays on a map in real time the position of police officers and patrol cars that have received an initial 110 emergency call and are at the scene of an incident or on patrol.
This is a room that is usually off-limits, so please take this opportunity to see it.
At the end of the class, there will also be a commemorative photo with patrol cars or police motorcycles.
The class is conducted in simple Japanese, but is also available in various languages including English, Chinese, Vietnamese and Portuguese, to allow people who do not speak Japanese to participate.
Please feel free to apply to the International Relations and Cooperation Division by telephone (please be aware that applications will close when the class quota of 30 people is filled).
◆ Venue: 1F lobby, Hiroshima Central Police Station (9-48, Motomachi, Naka Ward, Hiroshima City)
◆ Bookings and inquiries: International Relations and Cooperation Division ／ Phone: (082) 242－8879
