摘要

This paper examines the compensation policies proposed by Japan Federation of Employers’Associations(NIKKEIREN),especially focusing on the“regular wage hike system(Teikisyokyu)”.NIKKEIREN has proposed to its members of Japanese employers many kinds of compensation system,such as pay for performance or multi-path pay scheme based on“employment portfolio”.As shown in the change of NIKKEIREN’s policies in 1990s,the appearance of Japanese compensation system looked drastically changed,comparing with that of 1980s,which was usually known as the“seniority wage system”.However,there is one thing that Japanese employers’organization does not give up:the regular wage hike system.The essential reason was that it was regarded as the indispensable element to keep the employee’s order in a Japanese company’s organization.The paper investigates the detail of the compensation policies of NIKKEIREN and makes it clear how the Japanese employers’organization tried to update the regular wage hike system,especially taking up the era of 1990s and 2000s when Japanese employment systems changed.
