Nagoya based Anjo mill of Kurashiki Spinning Co. embodies a “family system” that keeps labor steady, with 90 percent of 240 men and 1,800 women living in company dormitories and working three shifts six days a week. Young female workers average 17, recruited from rural areas with parental consent, receive three years of schooling and homemaking training while earning about 13,500 yen monthly. The policy supports loyalty, limits firing, provides meals, and frames wage talks between Nagoya management and the union, with most employees marrying within three years of employment.
