Willing Workers: The Work Ethics in Japan, England, and the United States

By Tamotsu Sengoku and Koichi Ezaki

Based on findings from several international surveys concerning work environment and job attitudes, Sengoku discusses and analyzes the differences in and cultural bases of the work ethics of Japan, England, and the United States. In his comparisons of different national work settings and of different generations of Japanese workers, Sengoku probes the anatomy of a significant change that is taking place in Japan today--the erosion of traditional values among the new generation of Japanese workers to the point that American youth may actually be more work-oriented now than their Japanese counterparts.
