Research on labor market, labor policy and the constructive principles of labor law

这项研究的目的是绘制出自20世纪80年代以来（特别是自20世纪90年代以来）劳动力市场、就业、立法政策和劳动法的转变，并为未来的发展寻求新的组织原则。在过去的四年中，主要研究者、共同研究者和研究合作者出版了四本书(Wada, Hajime，《人权保障与劳动法》，日文>(2008),Karatsu, Hiroshi，《劳动合同法律理论与雇佣规则》，日文>(2010),Tonai, Kazuhiro，《德国员工代表制与法律》，日文>（2010),Nishitani， Satoshi和Itaru Nemoto，《劳动合同与法律》，日文>(2011)）。课题组在期刊上发表论文一百余篇，在学术会议上作报告5次，举办国际学术研讨会5次（日德2次，日韩3次）。在项目的最后一年，研究小组特别注重巩固迄今为止取得的研究成果：(a)对《工人派遣法》进行了系统的研究，以期在2012年秋季发表。个别研究课题包括：1)分析与法律有关的制定和修订过程；2)分析案件和法院判例；3)审查法律固有的基本问题；4)比较法分析。在这个阶段，大约80%的工作已经完成。(b)审查了最高法院关于雇主法律概念和不公平劳工做法的判例的继承情况。本研究符合企业组织变革和劳动法问题的主题。(c)关于劳资关系转变和劳动法问题的主题，对国家公务员制度劳资关系的变化进行了研究，这是目前国会辩论的一个议题。本研究结果已发表在《日本科学》杂志和《日本科学》杂志上。特别是关于后者，这篇文章构成了一个罕见的案例，这个问题得到了全面和全面的解决。上述研究产生的理论结果包括：1)检验劳动法放松管制政策对劳动力市场和就业的影响，并提出构建新安全网的方向；2)从平等和社会包容的角度，对非正规就业政策的对策进行了调查，但主要针对派遣工人；3)澄清2007年《劳动合同法》中明显的解释和理论问题；4)《平等机会法案》的新发展路线。根据最初制定的研究计划，已经取得了显著的成果。少

This research was devised with the objective of mapping out transitions in the labour market, employment, legislative policy, and labour law since the 1980s(particularly since the 1990s), as well as pursuing a new organisational principle for future development. During the last four years, the principal investigator, co-investigators, and research collaborators have published four books(Wada, Hajime, The Guarantee of Human Rights and Labour Law<in Japanese>(2008), Karatsu, Hiroshi, The Legal Theory of Labour Contracts and Rules of Employment<in Japanese>(2010), Tonai, Kazuhiro, Germany's Employee Representation System and Law<in Japanese>(2010), Nishitani, Satoshi and Itaru Nemoto, Labour Contracts and Law<in Japanese>(2011)). In addition, the research group has published over one hundred articles in journals, given five presentations at academic conferences, and held five international symposia(Japan-Germany, twice ; Japan-South Korea, three times).During the final year of the project … More the research group has focused, in particular, on the consolidation of research results achieved thus far:(a) Systematic research has been conducted on the Worker Dispatch Law with a view to publication in autumn 2012. Individual topics of research comprise, 1) analysis of the enactment and amendment process pertaining to the Law, 2) analysis of cases and court precedents ; 3) examination of fundamental problems inherent in the Law and ; 4) analysis of comparative law. At this stage, approximately eighty percent of the work is complete.(b) The succession of Supreme Court precedents concerning the legal concept of employer and unfair labour practices have been examined. This research corresponds to the theme of organisational change in enterprises and issues in labour law.(c) In relation to the theme of shifting labour-management relations and issues in labour law, research has been conducted on changes in national public service labour relations, currently a topic of debate in the Diet. The results of this research have been made public in Rodo Horitsu Junpo and Horitsu Jiho. With respect to the latter journal, in particular, this article constitutes a rare case of the issue being tackled inclusively and comprehensively.Theoretical results generated by the above research comprise, 1) an examination of the impact of labour law's deregulation policy on the labour market and employment, and a proposal as to the direction that the construction of a new safety-net could take ; 2) with regard the non-regular employment policy, an investigation of countermeasures, albeit focused primarily on dispatch workers, from the perspective of equality and social inclusion ; 3) a clarification of interpretative and theoretical problems evident in the Labour Contract Act of 2007 and ; 4) the routing of new developments in the Equal Opportunity Act. With respect to the research plan that was initially set, significant results have been achieved. Less
