Abstract

Japanese labour market practices have attracted considerable attention in the West for two reasons. Firstly, innovative human resource management (HRM) is responsible for the development of competitive industrial sectors. Secondly, inner flexibility of the labour market has produced low unemployment and wage flexibility. This study, originally published in 2000, provides a thorough investigation of the distinctive features of Japanese internal labour markets (ILM) and occupational labour markets (OLM), closely analyses important changes in ILM and considers future developments. It combines a mixture both of descriptive and of theoretical and econometric work and builds on the authors' wel- known previous research in this area. Also contains a detailed case study and the econometric analysis of HRM policies used by a large Japanese firm. Although the focus is on Japanese ILM, international comparisons are made throughout, mainly with reference to Europe and the United States.

Abstract

This book provides a comprehensive overview of Japanese labour market institutions and practices with respect to employment issues and labour payments. It contains extensive discussion of the effects of industrial relations, small business activity, business cycles and schooling on work and pay. An early chapter is devoted to presenting, in an accessible manner, essential labour market ideas and concepts that recur throughout the text. Important topics covered include (i) unions and wage determination, (ii) the breakdown of total labour costs, (iii) the Japanese bonus system, (iv) the employment life-cycle, (v) small businesses and subcontracting, (vi) pay and productivity over the business cycle. A key feature is that subject areas and themes are examined within a comparative United States/European framework. This allows assessments of whether or not the structure and performance of the Japanese labour market has differed from experience elsewhere.

Abstract

Réalisé à l’occasion du colloque organisé par la Conférence du Jeune Barreau de Mons le 6 mai 2010 sur le thème « Les employeurs et les travailleurs face à la crise », cet ouvrage, résolument axé vers la pratique, fait le point sur des sujets que la crise actuelle révèle ou rend plus sensibles. Les conséquences de cette dernière sur le droit social justifient amplement une étude approfondie de ces matières. Après une introduction de Steve Gilson consacrée à la place du droit social face à la crise, Messieurs Geerebaert et Glorieux analysent le régime du licenciement collectif. Leur contribution n’élude pas les épineuses questions pratiques, comme les accords négociés de manière collective sur le délai de préavis avant le congé. Monsieur Crabeels et Madame Michaux font le point sur la question de la prépension ; ce sujet est dans la tourmente depuis le « pacte des générations ». Monsieur Peltzer aborde l’outsourcing. Sa contribution retrace les différents éléments constitutifs du transfert d’entreprise à l’aune, notamment, de la jurisprudence de la Cour de justice. Enfin, Monsieur Caby aborde la question du licenciement abusif en période de crise économique. L’auteur envisage des questions nouvelles, comme celles liées à l’application récente par la jurisprudence de la loi du 29 juillet 1991 relative à la motivation formelle des actes administratifs pour les employeurs de droit public. L’ouvrage, au coeur de l’actualité, trouvera sa place dans la bibliothèque de tous les praticiens du droit social.
