Book Synopsis Understanding Industrial Relations in Modern Japan by : Kazuo Koike
Download or read book Understanding Industrial Relations in Modern Japan written by Kazuo Koike and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 1988-05-04 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book denies the cultural uniqueness of Japanese industrial relations and economy, characterised by permanent employment, seniority wages and enterprise unionism. The author provides an entirely new explanation of Japanese workers' high morale and Japan's impressive economic performance which, he argues, results from skilled employees working against a background of high technology. The argument of the book is based on intensive field-work, consisting of a series of interviews with veteran workers on the shop floor, and on an explicit comparative study between the USA and Japan.
Book Synopsis Industrial Relations System in Japan by : Yasuo Kuwahara
Download or read book Industrial Relations System in Japan written by Yasuo Kuwahara and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Opinions about industrial relations (IR) in Japan are extremely diversified. The main concern regarding IR appears to be whether Japan can maintain the vitality and flexibility to cope with the changes in the industrial structure and technology in a stagnant world economy. The lack of opposition and dispute between labor and management may be the most important feature for summarizing labor-management relations in modern Japan when making international comparisons. Hypotheses for understanding Japanese IR have been postulated in regard to the following: unintended consequences, homogeneous structure, business community of management and labor, global competition and the needs for flexibility, adaptability in competitive markets, and transformation of the paradigm of IR. The historical development of labor relations in Japan shows a spirit of cooperation. By any measurement of cooperation, labor-management cooperation is strongest in Japan. A special feature of the corporate structure is management's role as referee between the employees and the stockholders. Other features include a continuous path of promotion, firm-specific training, built-in wage-profit system, and transit members of unions. A typical system for mutual communication is the "labor-management consultation system." In the future, unions must minimize adverse effects of competition among rival companies, individualization, and fragmentation of IR. (Appendixes include 25 references and a chronological table of IR in Japan.) (YLB)

Book Synopsis Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Japan by : Tadashi Hanami
Download or read book Labour Law and Industrial Relations in Japan written by Tadashi Hanami and published by Springer. This book was released on 1979 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a thorough understanding of labour law in Switzerland two characteristics of the Swiss political system must be mentioned: federalism & direct democracy. The division of powers between the federal state & the cantons, the latter of which have generally had the most influence with respect to labour law & other law areas until quite recently. This has resulted in situations in which the distribution of powers between the federal government & the cantonal governments was unclear. Fortunately this state of affairs has improved the last couple of years with the extension of federal powers in the sphere of labour law. Besides federalism the system of direct democracy has had a delaying influence on the development of labour law in Switzerland. Public opinion, generally not a very progressive force in Switzerland, is strongly influenced by pressure groups & citizens opposing popular reforms. As a result the popular vote has been an important delaying factor in the evolvement of new laws & regulations in the area of social & labour law. These two hindering factors should be kept in mind when reading Berenstein's Labour Law in Switzerland in which the past & current situation of labour law in Switzerland is described covering basic themes such as working time, incapacity to work, termination of contract, protection of young persons & women, collective bargaining, trade union freedom & the settlement of industrial disputes by arbitration or conciliation.
Book Synopsis Industrial Harmony in Modern Japan by : W. Dean Kinzley
Download or read book Industrial Harmony in Modern Japan written by W. Dean Kinzley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-11-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic success in Japan has been attributed to the existence of harmonious labour-management relations. This book, first published in 1991, argues that this unique ‘culture of harmony’ was consciously invented and developed over the last century. A semi-bureaucratic organization called the Kyochokai was established in 1919 to meet the needs of an emerging industrial society. It took the lead in trying to define the values which would be suitable for a new Japanese-style industrial culture. The resulting ‘invented’ tradition has played an important role in the evolution and character of Japanese economic values and behaviour.
Book Synopsis Law and Industrial Relations:China and Japan After World War II by : Vai Io Lo
Download or read book Law and Industrial Relations:China and Japan After World War II written by Vai Io Lo and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese and Japanese trade unions may seem emasculated and weak when compared with their Western counterparts in that they do not stand up to management to protect the interests of workers. The author's careful analysis probes the reasons for this difference, tearing down stereotypical notions about societies with a Confucian heritage, to examine the significant role of law in shaping industrial relations in modern China and Japan. Through a comparative analysis of their trade union laws, this work analyses the role of law in shaping postwar industrial relations in China and Japan and the interplay amongst such elements as the State or the Party, management, and workers. The work focuses on industrial relations in commercial and industrial enterprises, addressing such issues as the performance or nonperformance of trade unions in China and Japan and possible explanations, and the prospects and limitations of using codified laws to effect change or control in the postwar industrial settings of these two countries. The work's helpful features include a comparative approach, the use of case studies to maximize objectivity and insight, a unified and clearly expressed thesis and conclusions including a summary of findings, footnotes and cross references, an index, and concise explanations of the relevant legal provisions and the manner in which they have been applied.
