Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reappraises the Japanese employment system, characterized by such practices as the periodic recruiting of new graduates, lifetime employment and seniority-based wages, which were praised as sources of high productivity and flexibility for Japanese firms during the period of high economic growth from the middle of the 1950s until the burst of bubbles in the early 1990s. The prolonged stagnation after the bubble burst induced an increasing number of people to criticize the Japanese employment system as a barrier to the structural changes needed to allow the economy to adjust to the new environment, with detractors suggesting that such a system only serves to protect the vested interests of incumbent workers and firms. By investigating what caused the long stagnation of the Japanese economy, this book examines the validity of this currently dominant view about the Japanese employment system. The rigorous theoretical and empirical analyses presented in this book provide readers with deep insights into the nature of the current Japanese labor market and its macroeconomic impacts.

Download or read book The Path to Higher Growth written by Ms.Chie Aoyagi and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper argues that Japan’s excessive labor market duality can reduce Total Factor Productivity (TFP) due to a negative impact on non-regular workers’ effort and on firms’ incentives to train them. On the basis of cross-country empirical evidence, the paper proposes some reform options. In particular, our analysis suggests that reducing the difference in employment protection between regular and non-regular workers would substantially reduce labor market duality in Japan. One reform consistent with these findings is the introduction of a Single Open Ended Contract for all newly hired workers. This reform could be complemented by a shift towards a model that combines labor market flexibility and security (“flexicurity”) and by policies aimed at encouraging wage growth.

Book Synopsis Wage-Price Dynamics and Structural Reforms in Japan by : Davide Porcellacchia
Download or read book Wage-Price Dynamics and Structural Reforms in Japan written by Davide Porcellacchia and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Structural reforms in the liquidity trap need not be deflationary. This paper develops a simple framework to study the role that key characteristics of Japan’s labor and product markets—labor-market duality and weak corporate governance—play in generating unfavorable wage-price dynamics. The model allows a discussion of whether and in what form structural reforms may contribute to Japan’s short-run goal of reflating the economy. It finds that boosting inflation with structural reforms implies an unusual trade-off with employment, that is an inverted Phillips curve. Simultaneous implementation of labor-market and product-market reforms is most effective in terms of reflating the economy.

Book Synopsis Why are Nominal Wages Downwardly Rigid, But Less So in Japan? by : Sachiko Kuroda

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this paper, we survey the theoretical and empirical literature to investigate why nominal wages can be downwardly rigid. Looking back from the 19th century until recently, we first examine the existence and extent of downward nominal wage rigidity (DNWR) for several countries. We find that (1) nominal wages were flexible in the 19th century and first half of the 20th century, but (2) nominal wages were downwardly rigid in almost all industrialized countries in the second half of the 20th century, although (3) the extent of DNWR varied from country to country. Next, we use a behavioral economics framework to explain the reasons for DNWR. We also explain why the existence and extent of DNWR varied between time periods and/or from country to country, focusing on differences in the labor market characteristics (such as labor mobility and employment protection legislation) and in the macroeconomic environment (such as economic growth and inflation), which can alter employees' and firms' perceptions toward nominal wage cuts."--Authors' abstract.

Book Synopsis Labour Productivity and Flexibility by : Edward J. Amadeo
Download or read book Labour Productivity and Flexibility written by Edward J. Amadeo and published by Springer. This book was released on 1997-12-13 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about two polemical issues in labour studies, namely, the notions and determinants of labour productivity and flexibility. This book attempts to develop the notion of labour input flexibility or the capacity of workers to adapt to changes in the environment and its relation with labour productivity. The role of institutions, employment practices, capital-labour relations and labour market policies in determining labour flexibility is emphasized. The chapters look at the experiences of industrialized countries (European countries, the USA, Canada and Japan) and three Latin American countries (Brazil, Chile and Mexico).
Book Synopsis Risk Behavior and the Determinants of Bonus Versus Regular Pay in Japan by : Masao Nakamura
Download or read book Risk Behavior and the Determinants of Bonus Versus Regular Pay in Japan written by Masao Nakamura and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compensation schemes for workers have generated much interest in recent years. At the micro level they may affect workers' productivity. Due to the responses of firms, aggregate employment may also be affected by how workers get paid. Japanese bonus payments account for 25 to 33% of workers' total earnings and have attracted attention in the literature as a flexible method of compensation. In this paper we consider a model in which regular pay and bonus payments are treated as two streams of income with different risk characteristics. Workers are assumed to be risk averse while employers are assumed to face different cost conditions depending on how workers are paid. One of the implications of the model is that returns to human capital investments paid out in bonus form contain risk premiums. Another is that the ratio of bonus to regular pay should rise as the qualifications of the worker increase. These implications are consistent with the empirical findings presented in the paper.
