Yuka SAKAMOTO Ochanomizu University Wendy A. SPINKS Tokyo University of Science Yuko SHOZUGAWA NTT DATA An Analysis of the MLIT Survey 2002: The Japanese Telework Population
Outline • Survey Design • Survey Findings • Obervations
Survey Design • Survey Population & Sampling Methods • Step 1: Household Phone Numbers • Random Digit Dialling Private Numbers • Step 2: Selecting 1 Household Worker • Random Digit Table • Random sample from all Japanese households
Methodology & Response Rates • Computer Assisted Telephone Interviews • Survey Period: Oct. 25 – Nov. 10, 2002 • Response Sample: 6,783
Survey Content • Screening: A) Normally engaged in paid work B) Use ICT networks in the course of work C) Use ICT in more than 1 location (or if only 1 location, different to assigned office) D) More than 8 hours/week in different locations
A Engaged in paid work? NO Not Teleworker YES B Use ICT in course of work? NO Not Teleworker YES C Are you self-employed? Use ICT at home or more than1 location? NO NO Not Teleworker YES YES D Telework 8 hours or more/week? Broad Definition TELEWORKER NO YES TELEWORKER (8 + hours/week) Screening Flow
ICT Equipment/Network = Telework range
Unresolved Design Issues • Ascertaining formal/informal telework by employees • Ascertaining ICT impact of self-employed workstyles (new occupations /change in existing occupations)
Survey Findings NB Regular = 8 or more hours/week; Occasional = Less than 8 hours/week Total excludes respondents with unclear employment status
B) ICT changed major part of how job performed34% A) Jobs directly involved with ICT 5% C) ICT changed minor part of how job performed 61% Job ICT Dependence
TW Advantages Salaried (n=91) Self-employed (n=85)
TW Challenges Salaried (n=91) Self-employed (n=85)
Observations • First truly robust Japanese survey • Only 30% of teleworkers know the term • Clear qualitative difference between Japan and the EU • “Out-of-hours” becoming hot topic Thank you
