Abstract

The Japanese lifetime employment system is believed to be demised and collapsed; however, there are many companies which attach importance to long-term and regular employment. Also these companies have achieved high growth and profitability. In this paper, these facts will be shown and the Japanese lifetime employment system will be revisited by an artificial neural networks model, which can deal with a non-linear relationship, using questionnaire survey data and financial data.
