| Tiivistelmä: | Findings from a survey of 106 Japanese and USA factories and 8,302 of their employees are overviewed. If the survey data are to be believed, the Japanese employees' job satisfaction is less and their commitment to the company is essentially the same in the two samples. A slightly more commitment of Japanese workers can be explained by several management practices such as quality circles, the "ringi" system, centralized authority combined with de facto participation, employee services, seniority compensation, and enterprise unions. When these and similar practices appear in USA factories, similar positive changes in employee work attitudes result. Therefore, the success of these practices does not depend on Japanese-style work values. |
