  • 2. As of the end of each fiscal year (March 31)
  • *1 The figures for each fiscal year are as of June 1 of the following fiscal year.
  • *2 “All employees” refers to regular employees and non-regular employees.
    “Regular employees” includes employees in three position categories: “Professionals” which refers to those in management positions engaged in core duties; “Staff,” which refers to those in non-management positions engaged in core duties; and “Assistants,” which refers to those engaged mainly in support duties. Senior positions are calculated in accordance with their respective grades and divided into the three aforementioned position categories.
    “Non-regular employees” includes unretired senior employees working on a fixed-term contract or special fixed-term contract but excludes temporary employees. The difference in wages between men and women is due to the difference in the personnel composition by position and the difference in the personnel composition for qualification classifications (“bands”); there are no gap in wages for the same duty type. Accordingly, there is minimal gap in wages between men and women for the positions of professionals, staff, and assistants.
