Solitary Non-Employed Persons (SNEPs) is a new concept that refers to “Non-employed persons who are aged over 20 and 59 or less, who are not married or engaged in study, who are normally completely alone or who do not spend time with people other than their family.” According to the time use survey to focus on interaction during two consecutive days nominated randomly, the number of SNEPs rapidly increased in the decade from 2000, reaching 1,620,000 as of 2011 in Japan. A high percentage of SNEPs do not engage in any social activities such as sports, travel, or volunteer activities in the previous year. SNEPs tend to be male, middle-aged and older, junior-high school graduates. However, the tendency for people in their 20’s not to become SNEPs has weakened, and the isolation of young unmarried non-employed persons is becoming more serious. SNEPs do not tend to use e-mail and information searches. SNEPs are negative about either job-seeking activities or wanting to get jobs. The increase in SNEPs may be a factor of social instability and fiscal burden, such as the further increase in welfare recipients, and urgent policy responses are required such as public programs for generating skilled supporters who can outreach to SNEPs.
