research summary

I am interested in and researching "work," something people spend a large part of their time doing throughout their lives. Working styles and attitudes toward work vary depending on country, generation, era, or the situation an individual finds themselves in. These differences are heavily influenced not only by differences on the part of the workers, but also by differences on the part of companies and management, and these interact to create systems. In today's society, where diversity is required, a major research theme is what is needed to build a win-win relationship between companies and workers.
