项目摘要

1. Purpose This research compares intrafirm voice mechanisms and processes of determining working conditions in nonunion firms with those in union firms.2. Methodology I conducted a sample survey of head managers of personnel departments in Japanese private sector firms. The survey was conducted within a 30 kilometer radius of Tokyo Station. The sample was 1,250 firms, and 516 firms responded, yielding a response rate of 41.3%.3. Main Findings The quantitative analysis of the micro data reveals the following points. (1) Only 29% of the firms are unionized. In other words, a vast majority of the firms are now nonunion. (2) To communicate with employees, union firms make extensive use of both collective bargaining and joint consultation. (3) Nonunion firms, in contrast, utilize employee associations (63.6%) and joint consultation (24.6%). However, according to managerial evaluations, (a) middle management and employee workplace discussions and (b) meetings held to announce firm strategy functioned better than joint consultaions and employee associations. (4) Union firms induce greater employee voice regarding working conditions and management issues than their nonunion counterparts. However, the outcome of employee voice (in terms of separation rates) in union firms is no different than in nonunion firms.4. Report I have summarized the main results in an article (Tsuyoshi Tsuru, "Intrafirm Communication and Wage Determination in Japanese Nonunion Firms, " The Institute of Economic Research, Hitotsubashi University, Discussion Paper A-327), and presented the paper at the 1996 annual meeting of the Japan Association of Economics and Econometrics, and at an international conference on the Japanese economy which was held in Paris in December 1996.

1.目的本研究比较了非工会公司与工会公司确定工作条件的公司内部发声机制和流程。2.方法我进行了一项抽样调查的主管人事部门在日本私营部门的公司。调查是在东京站30公里半径范围内进行的。调查对象为1，250家企业，516家企业回复，回复率为41.3%。主要发现微观数据的定量分析揭示了以下几点。(1)只有29%的公司成立了工会。换句话说，现在绝大多数公司都没有工会。(2)为了与雇员沟通，工会企业广泛使用集体谈判和联合协商。(3)相比之下，非工会企业利用雇员协会（63.6%）和联合协商（24.6%）。然而，根据管理评估，（a）中层管理人员和雇员工作场所的讨论和（B）为宣布公司战略而举行的会议比联合协商和雇员协会的作用更好。(4)工会企业比非工会企业在工作条件和管理问题上更能引起员工的意见。然而，工会企业中员工声音的结果（就离职率而言）与非工会企业没有什么不同。我在一篇文章中总结了主要结果（Tsuyoshi Tsuru，“Intrafirm Communication and Wage Determination in Japanese Nonunion Firms，“The Institute of Economic Research，Hitotsubashi University，Discussion Paper A-327），并在1996年日本经济计量学会年会上发表了论文，以及1996年12月在巴黎举行的日本经济国际会议上。
