本文是人力资源专业的Essay范例,题目是“Japan's Human Resource Productivity Analysis(日本人力资源生产力分析)”,日本真的缺乏资源吗?当然不是,说日本是资源匮乏的国家是对事实的误解。事实上,日本拥有大量尚未开发的资源。国家对资源的重视不应仅仅局限于自然资源。更确切地说,对资源的广泛设想是至关重要的;在这种情况下,我将在本文中提出,正是通过人力资源,日本才能充分实现其潜力,充分建设有效的人力资源能力,从而提高其劳动力的生产力,并造福世界。提出提高竞争力的策略,指导日本的政策制定。尽管面临快速老龄化社会的巨大挑战和工作年龄人口的急剧减少,但通过国家教育和培训系统培养具有全球竞争力的人力资源是一种迫切的需求。 Introduction介绍 Is Japan really deficient in resources? Definitely not, and to say that Japan is a resource-deficient nation is a misconception of the true facts. Indeed Japan is endowed with abundant resources that remain untapped. An emphasis of the country’s resources ought not to be narrowly confined to natural resources only. Rather a broad visualization of resources is essential; in which case I would argue in this paper that it is through human resource that Japan can realize its full potential by adequately building an effective human resource capacity so as to enhance productivity for her labor force and for the benefit of the world. Strategies to enhancing its competitiveness shall be suggested to guide Japan in its policy formulation. Notwithstanding the significant challenge of the rapid aging society and the drastic decline in the working age population there is a pressing urge to foster globally competitive human resources through national education and training systems.
Concept of Human Resources: A picture from Japan人力资源的概念:一张来自日本的图片 Currently, Japan boosts of being the greatest source of human resources in the world. However, one of the greatest challenges facing the Japanese economic down turn compared with the developed countries is its insufficient utilization of its human resource capabilities amid the ageing population and declining birthrate. 目前,日本被认为是世界上最大的人力资源来源。然而,与发达国家相比,日本经济下滑面临的最大挑战之一是在人口老龄化和出生率下降的情况下,其人力资源能力的利用不足。 Systems of employment and education created during the post-war period when economic growth was at its peak have eventually fallen into a “trap” and has not been able to cope up with the dynamics and thus remains largely unchanged to this present day. The ultimate outcome of this stagnation in these systems has resulted to education levels among children and the youths lag behind compared to the global trends, besides the capabilities of women and the old remains not fully harnessed. This therefore calls for a fast and rapid transformation of the current system to ensure that the human resources are significantly utilized for the benefit not only of Japan, but also the entire global. Vitality restoration through women-friendly work environments通过有利于女性的工作环境恢复活力 Is women empowerment critical? ‘The power of women’ is Japan’s greatest potential for fully tapping on its human resource which remains largely untapped and therefore calls for expediency in tapping it. This is especially critical in securing human capital that will support the growth of the new sectors amid the fears over the decreasing workforce population arising as a result of the decline in the birthrates and also largely because of the aging population. 女性赋权至关重要吗?“女性的力量”是日本充分利用其大部分尚未开发的人力资源的最大潜力,因此需要权宜地利用它。这对确保人力资本至关重要,人力资本将支持新行业的增长,因为人们担心出生率下降和人口老龄化会导致劳动力人口减少。 Enhancing the women’s labor force participation is essential as this reflects a diverse sense of values and thus bringing vitality to the entire economy. Besides, it doubles the household’s income hence increasing their purchasing power eventually setting into motion a virtuous economic cycle. Policy proposals to fully utilize the Japan’s “women power” The employment rate of women especially in the age cohort 25-44 should be raised up from the current 68% to almost 75% by 2020. There is need to develop childcare facilities so as to reduce the childcare waiting lists as this will allow women to devote their time to work. It should support organizations and companies that actively promote women’s participation in the labor force. By providing tax levy reductions, by doing this companies will be motivated to employ women without the fear that there will be lost revenues when women take childcare leaves and will be rather compensated by the tax levy reduction. Towards empowering both the youth and the elderly to work with vitality. The case of life-time employment should now be a thing of the past especially with the move to replace the old facilities and equipment. Such a move will see more employment opportunities expand in the new growth sectors. Japan’s should lay emphasis on labour fluidity rather than ensuring employment stability among its workforce. This would ensure that labour is moved from mature sectors to the new growth sectors without necessarily creating unemployment. Instead, of having to move from temporary to another temporary job the best and most appropriate policy would be that which enable people find jobs whose incomes are commensurate with their abilities. If individuals are in a position to find jobs whose incomes are modest they are better placed to raise a family thus reversing the current trends in population demographics and they would be in a position to nurture the next generation and thus adding to the existing stock of human capital. 日本应重视劳动力的流动性,而不是确保其劳动力的就业稳定。这将确保劳动力从成熟部门转移到新的增长部门,而不一定会造成失业。与其从一份临时工作转到另一份临时工作,最好和最恰当的政策应该是使人们找到收入与其能力相称的工作。如果人能够找到工作的收入是适度更好地提高一个家庭因此扭转当前的趋势在人口统计数据和他们将能够培养下一代,因此添加到现有的人力资本存量。 Policy Proposals to promote the youths and elderly labor force participation In an attempt to tap into this population Japan should move away from the policy of maintaining current job positions to a policy that supports motivated employees to take up positions within the growth sectors after expanding opportunities for improving their capabilities. It also needs to take full advantage of the vibrant private sector in matching people with jobs. This can be done by making job information concerning a public employment program open to the private employment and recruiting agencies. Re-training of elderly adults should also be adopted in the face of the unprecedented rate of technological changes within japan. These trainings should also be extended to the youths so that they stay up-to-date on the dynamic technological progress. Developing Japan’s youth into globally competitive human resources培养日本青年成为具有全球竞争力的人力资源 Japan’s youth face competitions from those across the globe. In order for them to win in global competitions, and to play active roles on the world stage in areas such as academic research, culture, and to make contributions in the international scene, it is an urgent matter to raise the level of education up to international standards. Japanese universities should be elevated to world-class statuses. There should also be profound emphasis towards strengthening English education from primary through secondary education. 日本的年轻人面临着来自世界各地的竞争。为了使他们在全球竞争中获胜,并在世界舞台上在学术研究、文化等领域发挥积极作用,并在国际舞台上做出贡献,当务之急是提高教育水平,使其达到国际标准。日本大学应该提升到世界一流水平。从小学到中学的英语教育也应该得到高度重视。 Policy Proposals to enhance global competitiveness among the youth The system of higher education should be reformed, for instance it should reform its national universities by striving to place more Japanese universities in the top ranked universities globally. It should also seek to triple the number of Japanese students who study abroad from the current numbers which is still considered very low. This can be achieved by offering scholarships to young bright students to study abroad in academic courses and this will eventually lead to the adoption of education to globalization. Importantly it should strengthen English education from primary through secondary education as well as establishing English as an elementary school subject as well teaching junior schools in English. This will help enhance Japan’s global competitiveness in its human resource. 重要的是要从小学到中学加强英语教育,将英语作为小学的一门学科,并在初中用英语教学。这将有助于提高日本人力资源的全球竞争力。 Leaping into the world and attracting the world. The global market continues to expand exponentially and this is driven especially by the emerging countries. For Japan with largely untapped resources, whether or not Japan will be able to succeed in the competition is of critical importance. In order to also take a portion of the cake provided through the rapid globalization it should undertake the following proposals.
Policy Proposals政策建议 It should tap into the growth of the emerging countries by promoting economic partnerships as well as investment agreements by removing the institutional impediments currently constraining it from reaching at these agreements. This can be done by increasing the export of SMEs to higher levels than it currently is exporting. It can also strengthen and deepen its economic partnerships with the world’s major countries and increasing its penetration in developing countries to enable it reap from the growing middle class that is unprecedentedly growing. 它应该利用新兴国家的增长,通过促进经济伙伴关系和投资协议,消除目前制约它达成这些协议的体制障碍。这可以通过将中小企业的出口提高到比目前更高的水平来实现。它还可以加强和深化与世界主要国家的经济伙伴关系,增加对发展中国家的渗透,使其能够从空前增长的中产阶级中获益。 It should also strive to promote Japan as a destination for foreign investments and also as a tourist destination through aggressive campaigns of a cool Japan. As far as the overseas activities of companies are concerned, it should make dramatic shift in the view that business matters should be left solely to the private sector. Both the public and private sector should make concerted efforts in order to strategically acquire a portion of the global market share, including infrastructure export. CONCLUSION结论 The government’s economic policies and business models that served Japan so well during the postwar catch-up phase through the 1980s have become liabilities for Japan in the post-cold war of the 1990s and the 21st century. To regain its competitiveness, Japan needs to make major changes to cope effectively with the forces of globalization. Among the central changes needed is diversity and innovation that might be described as a ‘global change agent.’ The policy proposals outlined in this paper is a blue print that Japan cannot wade away from them if it is to strategically brand itself as a human resource hub for the globe. It must therefore remain committed to implementing them. 政府的经济政策和商业模式曾在战后追赶阶段(直至20世纪80年代)为日本提供了良好的服务,但在20世纪90年代和21世纪的后冷战时期,这些政策和商业模式已成为日本的负担。为了重新获得竞争力,日本需要做出重大改变,以有效应对全球化的力量。其中需要的核心变化是多样性和创新,这可以被称为“全球变化的推动者”。如果日本要在战略上把自己打造成全球人力资源中心,那么这份报告中列出的政策建议就是一份蓝图,日本不能轻易放弃。因此,它必须继续致力于执行这些措施。 Investment in human capital is a priority for Japan to remain competitive both locally and globally. It was paramount in the my opinion to address the issue of human resources since unlike other resources, human capital is not subject to diminish in value through its use; rather on the contrary its value appreciates. 人力资本投资是日本保持本地和全球竞争力的首要任务。在我看来,解决人力资源问题是最重要的,因为与其他资源不同,人力资本的价值不会因其使用而减少;相反,它的价值在增值。 留学生论文相关专业范文素材资料,尽在本网,可以随时查阅参考。本站也提供多国留学生课程作业写作指导服务,如有需要可咨询本平台。 |
