Abstract
Internal company events, a form of communication that takes place outside of work hours in Japanese companies, were linked to work performance and a sense of belonging and at-tachment to the company 50 years ago. Today, however, with the increase in social net-working and other means of communication, many employees do not want to participate in internal company events, and it is said that such events do not necessarily lead to improved work performance. In this paper, we examine the relationship between internal company events and work performance based on the results of a questionnaire survey. The results showed that employees who were more willing to participate in company events were more satisfied with their relationships with their superiors and subordinates, and their work per-formance was higher. A correlation was found between satisfaction with relationships and attachment to the company. Among internal company events, participation in events in-volving alcohol consumption was found to be higher.
