Isi artikel

The Labor Contract Act of Japan, enacted in November 28, 2007, and effective from March 1, 2008, sets forth rules on basic rights and obligations in relation to labor contracts. This article examines the significance of this act and future issues that it raises. It begins with a review of the background to its enactment, including the increasing role of individual labor contracts and the rise in number of individual labor disputes, and a summary of events leading up to its enactment. This is followed by an explanation of the significance of the act’s enactment. I then proceed to demonstrate how the Labor Contract Act differs in character from other labor legislation, such as the Labor Standards Act, before turning to look at interpretive issues focusing on the provisions on rules of employment. I conclude by identifying issues of future interest, including enhancement of the act’s content.
