Description

This Routledge study examines why some economies have successfully reformed their labour markets while others lag behind. The book explores how leading economies have modernised by making part-time and flexible working arrangements more accessible, reducing restrictive trade union practices, investing in workforce skills development, and adapting to demographic changes. Through a detailed comparison of Japan and Australia, the work analyses the structural barriers and policy choices that determine labour market performance. Essential reading for economists, policymakers, and business leaders seeking to understand the relationship between labour market flexibility and economic growth, this volume provides practical insights into the reforms necessary for prosperity in modern economies.

Key Features

Compares labour market reform strategies between Japan and Australia, two major Asia-Pacific economies with distinct approaches.

Examines flexible working arrangements, part-time employment policies, and how labour market structures affect economic growth.

Analyses trade union practices and workforce regulations that either enable or hinder modernisation in developed economies.

Explores skills development, training programmes, and workforce adaptation strategies in response to changing demographics.

Part of the Routledge Studies in the Growth Economies of Asia series, providing regional economic context and analysis.

Ideal for economists, policymakers, business strategists, and students studying economic policy and development.
