Your tour is fully protected no matter what country you are paying from. Full details of this will be clearly explained in our terms and conditions. 2. Small Groups with NO MINIMUM NUMBER POLICY Our groups have always been intimate in size. We prefer quality over quantity. For that reason, our average group size averages at 8-12 people (maximum 16 guaranteed). Since our tours started in 2007, and unlike many other operators out there, we have never cancelled a tour because of insufficient numbers. If we get less than the minimum number to run a tour (currently set at 6 people), don’t worry. We have years of experience designing a semi-escorted version of the same tour. The only difference to you will be instead of having a full- time tour leader throughout, you will be met on arrival at each destination by local guides and assistants - almost like your own private tour!!

  • Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University
    Support for Workers Displaced in the Decline of the Japanese Coal Industry: Formal and Informal Support Naoko Shimazaki Waseda University Japan’s coal industry met its demise following a number of stages of restruc- turing under policies to change the structure of the energy industry. More than 200,000 coal mine workers were displaced from 1955 onward. The task of providing measures for displaced workers was recognized as an issue to be addressed at national level and such initiatives were considered to have con- siderable significance for the interests of society as a whole. This led to the development of substantial support systems of the kind not seen in other in- dustries, and comprehensive measures were adopted to cover not only reemployment, but also relocation, housing, and vocational training. However, fundamental issues faced by the unemployed were left unresolved. Formal support therefore in fact relied on the strength of individual companies and re- gional communities, and developed distinct characteristics. The insufficiencies of the formal support systems were compensated for by informal support based on personal relationships which were characteristic of the unique culture of coal mining. In particular, there was a strong sense of solidarity among fel- low mine workers. The support for displaced workers included not only finan- cial assistance, but also individual support, such as individual counselling and employment assistance provided by former coal mine employees acting as counselors. The labor unions played a central role in developing these measures. Such support was very strongly in tune with the workers’ culture generated within coal mining communities. I. Coal Policy and Measures for Displaced Workers in Japan The coal industry is a typical example of industrial restructuring in Japan.
