Research Abstract |
One Japan's overseas enterprise (cattle breeding) was accused of branch of Water Quality Act. This enterprise might examine the general risk of overseas management, but might not investigate the risk of branch of environmental law. When Japan's enterprise decide to expand its business overseas, it must exactly examine the foreign environmental law. Otherwise, there is the risk that civil penalty and criminal liability is pursued. Just the Japan's overseas enterprise that I investigate in this research paper paid the large amount of civil penalty and punished. The Japan's overseas enterprises have another risk that is worth of notice further. This risk is difficulty of communication between Japan's president and workers employed ba local office. One reason of the Branch of environmental law by the Japan's overseas enterprises studied in this research paper in California was this insufficient communication between them.
