Description:
Japan: International Society for Educational Information, 1974. Paper Covers. Very Good. 7 1/8" X 8 1/4. This booklet is an introduction to the labor situation in Japan and covers employment, wages, labor unions and labor-management relations, employee welfare, worker consciousness, and labor policy; the editor, a professor at Tokyo University, notes that the Japanese system of wages and employment has evoked interest in the Western world, and that Japan's economic growth is based on a highly educated labor force, lifetime employment, a seniority wage system, and enterprise unions organized according to individual companies; further, the labor-managment relation is defined as a human rather than contractual relationship, a situation based on unique Japanese cultural characteristics (white pictorial cover with very slight edgewear, otherwise a bright, clean, tight copy)
