Women, however, constitute the vast majority of the low wage, highly flexible ""non-core"" employees.This book breaks new ground in examining the role of Japanese women in industry. It assesses the extent to which growing pressure for equal opportunities between the sexes has caused Japanese companies to adapt their employment and personnel management practices in recent years.The author puts the argument in an historical perspective, covering the employment of Japanese women from the startSex discrimination in employmentJapanWomenEmploymentJapanSex discrimination in employmentWomenEmployment331.4/133/0952Lam Alice C.
