Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study explores the effects of human resource management (HRM) on the morale of standard employees in Japanese firms from the perspective of employment boundary. Employment boundary was defined as an interface between HRM of standard employees and HRM of nonstandard employees (e.g. part-time employees), and was operationalized as 1) the degree of job similarity between standard and nonstandard employees and 2) the degree of transferability between the two. Survey data from standard employees were analyzed and results suggested employment boundary moderated effects on the morale of standard employees. Further research is needed to explore not only HRM for standard employees and HRM for nonstandard employees, but also the relationships between HRM of standard employees and HRM of nonstandard employees.
