Facing Changing Principles of Employment

Hendrik Meyer-Ohle

Chapter 4 in Japanese Workplaces in Transition, 2009, pp 75-111 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The writers of the above three blog excerpts take up different aspects of work under the principles of lifelong employment, seniority payment and advancement. The first writer expresses his joy at the fact that his company still applies seniority principles in remunerating its workforce; the second writer, while somewhat vainly praising the advantages of youth, shows how seniority has an effect on everyday work in Japanese corporations, and finally the third writer remembers the expectations he had when taking up his first job.
