Description

This Routledge publication examines the critical role of Japanese women in industry and employment systems, a subject largely overlooked in standard works that focus exclusively on male workers. The book explores how Japanese women form the backbone of low-wage, flexible non-core employment positions within major corporations. It assesses the extent to which increasing pressure for equal opportunities between the sexes has prompted Japanese companies to adapt their employment and personnel management practices in recent years. By placing these developments in historical perspective, the work traces the employment patterns of Japanese women from the early stages of Japan's industrial development through to the modern era, offering valuable insights into gender discrimination in the workplace and the reforms being implemented to address systemic inequalities.
