Labour reforms delayed as Prime Minister faces resistance in Japan*****

(Oct. 18, 2013) Japan’s government has de layed key labour market deregulation, as Prime Minister Shinzo Abe faces resistance to a core part of his growth strategy to revive the world’s third-biggest economy, reports Bloomberg. This decision comes swiftly on the heels of the Prime Minister’s pledge this week to create a virtuous cycle of higher employment and spending. Fixed-term employment contracts may be extended to 10 years from the previous five within special economic zones under proposed new regulations. Other changes, including lifting restrictions on working hours for white-collar workers, will not go ahead, according to the Nikkei newspaper. Freeing up the labour market is crucial to the “third arrow” of Abe’s so-called Abenomics policies to shake up industry and lay a foundation for sustained growth. Relaxing employment rules in certain areas or for some companies would be “unacceptable,” the head of the Japanese Trade Union Confederation Nobuaki Koga said yesterday after a meeting with politicians and business leaders.

Workforce Management Software Cost Impacting Market***

(Oct. 7, 2013,/PRNewswire/) International market research firm Research and Markets has announced the publication of their "Global Workforce Management Software Market in the Retail Industry 2012-2016" report. One of the key factors contributing to the Workforce Management (WFM) Software market growth is the increased demand from Small and Medium-sized Enterprises. The global WFM market in the retail industry has also seen the emergence of cloud-based WFM solutions. However, the high cost of implementation could pose a challenge to the growth of this market. According to the report, one of the main factors driving the market is the increased investment from the retail industry in developing countries, which is due to the increase in the purchasing power of people in non-Western countries, compared to people in other regions. Further, both domestic and international products are being adopted in various developing courtiers. Further, the report states that one of the main challenges is the limitations in network infrastructure in developing countries.

Global Firms Facing HR Challenges in Asia***

(Oct, 9, 2013) Companies in Europe are struggling with sluggish demand and a gloomy employment market, while Asia seems like a land of promise: booming economies, robust demand, and a resilient job market, according to China Daily. But for those who are actually doing business in the region, there are also some challenges: the business opportunities are there but local competition is fierce, and while the supply of college graduates is huge, the right candidates are hard to find, and when they are found, the prosperous market means that they may easily move to rival firms.

Gallup Poll: Economic Confidence Plummets in Wake of Shutdown****

(Oct. 9, 2013, /Newsmax/)The government shutdown and looming debate over the debt ceiling have taken a major toll on the public’s confidence in the economy, bringing it to the lowest levels since the 2008 financial crisis, according to a new Gallup poll. The survey of 3,580 adults released Tuesday, showed that Gallup’s Economic Confidence Index tumbled 12 points -34 between Sept. 30 and Oct. 6, the biggest weekly decline since Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy in September 2008 and the index plunged 15 points. The index measures Americans’ assessments of current economic conditions and their perceptions of whether the economy is getting better or worse. It has plunged by 19 points since the middle of September and is now at -34, the lowest level since late December 2011. The public's outlook is not expected to improve soon, according to USA Today, which noted earlier this week that the government shutdown, now in its second week, would likely continue through the Oct. 17 deadline for raising the national debt limit.

High Siklls Shortage Creating Labour Market Imbalances in Australia**

(Oct. 23, 2013) An ongoing shortage of high-level skills means that Australia’s labour market is yet to find balanced ground, according to the Hays Global Skills Index. Questions remain about whether or not the country is able to deliver the high-skills needed. The Index, which assesses the efficiency of the skilled labour market in 30 countries, or its ability to supply skilled labour, found that the Australian labour market is still not producing the right skills pipeline. The Index scale ranges between 0 and 10, with the higher the Index score the greater the difficulty for employers in findings skills. A score greater than 5 indicates skill shortages; less than 5 indicates few if any signs of skills shortages. The score of 5.5 for Australia suggests employers face difficulty when recruiting for high-skill jobs.

The Sustainability-index of Pension in China far lower than India*****

(Oct. 14, 2013) As the population ages, demographic divided diminishing in China, the sustainability-index down from 30.5 in 201 to 28.9 in 2013, which is far below the global average of 51.9 and also far behind Indian(40.8),but slight higher than Brazil , according to the Melbourne Mercer global Pension Index, a new index which attempts to evaluate and compare the world’s pension systems, issued by Mercer.The overall index value for each country’s system represents the weighted average of the three sub-indices: adequacy, sustainability and integrity. Each index value represents a score between zero and 100.The Chinese index value increased from 45.4 in 2012 to 47.1 in 2013 primarily due to the impact of the revised tax question and the recognition that investment income in pension plans is tax exempt. China’s retirement income system ranked 16, down from No. 15 in 2012.
