Business Ethics and Corporate Governance in Japan
探讨日本公司治理与商业伦理的现状，指出尽管法律改革允许引入委员会制度，但过度工作、骚扰、非法串通等伦理问题依然突出。
In Japan, although many people are interested in corporate governance and business ethics, there is little consensus on what good corporate governance entails. The Japanese Commercial Code (revised in 2003) enables Japanese companies to introduce a board committee system and abolish the company auditor system. After the recent exposure of various corporate malpractices, many Japanese companies have started institutionalizing business ethics in their organizations. Nevertheless, ethical issues such as death from overwork (karoshi), harassment at work, illegal collusion (dangou), and defrauding consumers and governments still remain prominent.
