Abstract
To keep long-term employment system or not is one of the serious problems under the recent social condition. We can find many studies to support long-term employment system in Japan. But many of them focus on the employees' firm-specific skills to deal with manufacturing standardized products efficiently at factory level. In the other hand, new social environment requires more value-added and differentiated products for japanese companies. At least in some types of products, such products are developed in integrated manners led by well-skilled core technical experts. Their firm-specific skills tend to be molded mainly through long-term experience and career development on the context of each company. In addition, some case-studies and statistic data tell us that such firm-specific skills would lead to organizational development of japanese companies.
