This paper mainly discusses three aspects of the transition of teachers' workload and the surveys of their working conditions. The first part deals with the transition and features of teachers' workload in the postwar period. Particularly intriguing is the fact that the 1990s saw the quality shift of their work from overwork conditions to feelings of stresses and strains. The second part discusses the newly conspicuous features in the 1990s from three points of view with reference to the previous studies; marketing of education, an increasing emphasis on students' individuality and diversity, and disclosure of information and accountability in education. The last part makes clear the features and issues of the surveys of teachers' working conditions conducted by boards of education, claiming that higher quality field surveys be needed.
