Round Table Conference on Industry and Labour

Japanese: 産業労働懇話会 - さんぎょうろうどうこんわかい（英語表記）Round Table Conference on Industry and Labour

Its abbreviation is Sanro Kon. It is a forum for top leaders of government, labor, management, and academia to hold regular discussions on industrial labor policy in general. Modeled on the West German Council for Concerted Action, it was established in 1970 as a private advisory body to the Minister of Labor. At the meetings, opinions are exchanged based on reports on current policy issues by government attendees, including the Prime Minister and key cabinet members. Over time, the discussions at the meetings have become more in-depth with each passing meeting, and the agreements reached there are reliably reflected in the government's policy management, making it an important communication channel for building social consensus on various issues related to Japan's economic and social policies.

略称は産労懇。政労使学のトップリーダーが産業労働政策全般について定期的に懇談する場。西ドイツの協調行動懇談会をモデルに 1970年労働大臣の私的諮問機関として発足。会議では首相や主要閣僚を含む政府側出席者による時事の政策課題に関する報告を基に意見の交換が行なわれる。この間会議での議論は回を重ねるに従って密度を深め，そこでの合意事項も確実に政府の政策運営に反映されるようになるなど，日本の経済社会政策上の諸問題について社会的な合意形成を図る重要なコミュニケーション・チャンネルとなっている。
