Abstract

<p>An Act for the Realization of Work Style Reformation has been enforced in 2019. Municipalities also began to constrain long working hours. However, the current reformation of working style is giving staff new burdens that they cannot regard their work as positive. The purpose of this research is to clarify the causal relationship among organizational culture in municipalities, leadership of managerial positions, and job satisfaction, and to energize staff in municipalities. In order to clarify the characteristics of municipalities, we compared municipalities with large companies by means of Multiple Group Structural Equation Modeling. By statistical analysis of the questionnaire applied to more than 1,000 people, we revealed that （1） the closed aspect of organizational culture does not act as a disincentive to job satisfaction and （2） positive and collaborative aspects of organizational culture encourage the sense of worthiness and growth in municipalities rather than in large companies. It is therefore more effective, in the era of working style reformation, to encourage teamwork and other collaborative aspects of staff working for municipalities than to highlight a negative aspect of municipality, which is so-called bureaucracy, and try overcoming it.</p>
