Lecture (in Japanese): "The Increase in Insecure Employment and the Problem of APU Lecturers" (tentative title)
By Professor Wakita Shigeru (Ryukoku University)There has been a radical change in how labourers work. The number of regular employees has been steadily decreasing, and the only jobs now available are fixed-term positions, such as contract-positions, part-time jobs, or dispatch jobs. Despite the fact that a need exists for someone to continue to do the same job, people are fired. Why?We hope to see a large number of citizens and workers participate.Sponsored by the Oita Labour Union and the Oita Region Labour Union
