Changing Workplaces — Blogging about Work

Hendrik Meyer-Ohle

Chapter 1 in Japanese Workplaces in Transition, 2009, pp 1-11 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The above citation is from the blog of a Japanese employee. Although just a short paragraph written in June 2001, it still provides information on the activities of a company, responses by its employees, speculations pertaining to the state of the company, and finally the problems of a single employee in coping with this situation. Thus the diary entry raises several questions: How typical of Japanese companies were and are the activities described? How do they relate to the overall situation of the Japanese economy? Are the feelings and speculations of this employee shared by others, and if so, how will this affect the future relationship between the company and employees in Japan?
