A Day of A Fukushima Daiichi Worker
[Updated on January 25]
According to the Japanese magazine SAPIO, a daily routine of an ordinary worker now engaged in a recovery project in Fukushima Daiichi is as follows:
(He stays at a lodgment a subcontractor manages. Between the lodgment and the Fukushima Daiichi, there is a kind of meeting place or a camp for workers sent by various subcontractors to gather and get on buses for the plant, which is called J Village. And, almost 6,000 workers go to the Fukushima Daiichi plant for various kinds of repair and recovery jobs every day.)

======================
A worker wears a full-face mask and a Tyvek protective garment with a 20-kg lead vest and three gloves, one on another, on each hand.
Yet, they could receive 250 milli sieverts of doses in two hours, the special limit for workers engaged in nuclear accident restoration.
======================
Those workers are mainly hired not directly by TEPCO, Hitachi, Toshiba, and other big businesses but by the second, the third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, or even the seventh tier subcontractors. And, some subcontractors are said to be collecting workers through connection with gangsters.
