Outline of Final Research Achievements

“Discretionary work style” (hereafter DWST) in which workers’ autonomy is seen as valid institutionally guarantees the boundary autonomy. In order to exert the boundary autonomy, it is important for superiors to help the employees under the discretionary work system (hereafter the DWS) to accomplish their jobs. Employees exerting boundary autonomy have high levels of satisfaction with work-life balance matters. Therefore, DWST seems to be useful to function as a measure required to maintain employees’ work-life balance.
In organizations where the DWS functions well, “the fittest person, the fittest job” is carried out thoroughly, and to do so, “strictly self-regulated management” is provided. In order for DWST to take root in organizations, the fittest persons and the fittest jobs should be carefully selected and “strictly self-regulated management” should be provided, instead of trying to widen the scope of application of the DWS unnecessarily.
