Isi artikel

Japan’s general unions (godo roso) have a long history, but they developed in earnest as unions to which individuals are affiliated after the emergence of community unions in the latter half of the 1980s. In addition to the national unions of the National Trade Union Council (Zenrokyo) that existed hitherto, the formation of the regional unions of the Japanese Trade Union Confederation (Rengo) in 1996 and the local unions of National Confederation of Trade Unions (Zenroren) in 2002, and the strengthening of their activities mean that general unions are in their prime. One of the most important activities of general unions is the resolution of individual labor disputes. The number of disputes resolved is increasing each year, with the independent resolution rate for disputes resolved by general unions through collective bargaining with companies climbing to 67.9%. While resolving disputes that have arisen as a result of violations or ignorance of labor law on the part of employers, general unions also provide opportunities for employers to learn about labor laws, as well as resolving disputes that cannot be resolved by government bodies. Official support for these activities would be desirable.
