Contests for the Workplace Japanese Steelworkers and Managers in the 1950s. GORDON. This article studies the Nippon Kokan (NKK) steel mills as typical cases of the postwar transformation of labor-management relations that began in the 1950s in Japan. It describes changes in the supervision of workers and in quality control that were part of managerial strategy to rationalize production in the context of massive investment drive. In these same years, the union at NKK became increasingly militant in the workplace and in wage actions winning strong support among many workers and posing significant threat to the company's rationalization program. The study describes the sources the strength as well as internal weaknesses and external pressures that led to the ultimate transformation of the union into body that rejected stance of confrontation and resistance to management.
