{"product_id":"womens-employment-in-japan-paperback-softback","title":"Women's Employment in Japan - Paperback \/ softback","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe low status accorded to part-time workers in Japan has resulted in huge inequalities in the workplace. This book examines the problem in-depth using case-study investigations in Japanese workplaces, and reveals the extent of the inequality. It shows how many part-time workers, most of whom are women, are concentrated in low paid, low skilled, poorly unionised service sector jobs. Part-time workers in Japan work hours equivalent to, or greater than, full-time workers, but receive lower financial and welfare benefits than their full-time colleagues. Overall, the book demonstrates that the way part-time work is constructed in Japan reinforces and institutionalises the sexual division of labour.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45565770596590,"sku":"9780415546300","price":74.39,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780415546300.jpg?v=1720684535","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/womens-employment-in-japan-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
