Abstract

<p>This study analyzes two questionnaire surveys （panel data comparing two time points） regarding work rules. The respondents of the first survey are third- and fourth-year university students, while respondents of the second survey are individuals who have been part of the workforce for not more than two years. The analyses revealed three important findings.First, the average awareness score for work rules decreases for individuals after their graduation. As for individual work rules, awareness increased for certain items, while awareness of other items declined. However, it is possible that workers respond “unaware” because they regard the knowledge as “not relevant.”Second, for persons already working, if the number of problems at the workplace is high, knowledge regarding work rules increases. It can be deduced that workers acquire “relevant” work rule knowledge to suitably address problems at the workplace.Third, in enterprises that have a labor union, awareness of workplace problems suggests that employees have acquired this knowledge while employed. We posit that the presence of a union helps employees to recognize that knowledge of work rules is relevant and useful when they encounter workplace problems.</p>
