When I came to Japan as a student I signed a paper for work permission that allows me to work part time jobs, but I have this at my resident card 就勞不可 when i translatedit it says (unable to work). Does anyone knows why? Or anyone having the same issue? I’m really confused

Look on the back of the card, it should be stamped with “Able to work up to 28 hours” special permission stamp.

You have to apply for the ability to work – It is not automatically added to a VISA – If you did apply for it, then there should be a stamp on your card that says you are allowed to work.
You have to go to immigration to get a 資格外活動許可. Then you can work up to 28 hours a week.
