LEGAL POLICY ON THE EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT PROCESS

1.作为本研究项目的第一步，我们收集了日本、德国和法国有关老年雇员及其退休过程的劳动和社会保障政策的书籍、文章和文献。考虑到经济学和社会学在这一领域的重要性，我们不仅收集了法律的资料，而且收集了经济学和社会学的资料。2.第二步，我们对这些资料进行了分析，从比较的角度明确了日本退休过程的特点。根据这些分析结果，我们讨论了1994年终身雇用制度的修改和公共养老金制度的改革的前景。3.最后，关于劳动法政策，我们不得不怀疑，考虑到鼓励雇用制度的灵活性，是否有必要修改外部劳动力市场规则。1994年的公共养恤金计划改革值得赞赏，但“部分养恤金”的实行和计划的复杂性应受到批评。具体分析和结论见本课题研究人员出版的专著或论文（见参考文献）。4.利用微机建立了劳动保障法数据库，为今后的研究奠定了基础。

1.As the first step of this research project, we gathered the books, articles and documents on the labor and the social security policy concerning the elder employees and their retirement process in Japan as well as in German and in France. Considering the importance of economic and sociological aspects in this field, we made the efforts to gather not only the legal materiaals, but also the economic and sociological ones.2.As the second step, we analyzed these materials to make clear the special features of the Japanese retirement process from comparative point of view. Referring to the results of these analyzes, we discussed the perspective on the revision of the life term employment system and the reform of the public pension scheme in 1994.3.To conclude, concerning the labor law policy, we will have to wonder if the revision of the external labor market regulations may not be necessary in consideration of the encouragement of the employment system flexibility. The public pension scheme reform in 1994 has to be appreciated, but the introduction of the "partial pension" and the complexity of the scheme should be criticized. For the detail of the analyzes and the conclusions, see a book or an article published by each member of this project (see the list of references).4.Using the personal computer, we make the data base on the labor and social security law, which will be very useful for the future research.
