  1. Figures for previous fiscal years have been restated following changes in the calculation method of the number of persons including medical professional instituted in FY2022.
  2. Figures are as of June 1 of each fiscal year.
  3. As of April 2023.
  4. Items subject to calculation of gender wage gap: Monthly salary (base pay, secondment allowance, separate living allowance, teleworking allowance, overtime work allowance, late-night premium allowance for managers, bonus) Reason for gap: While the ratio of female managers affects the wage gap for both regular and non-regular employees, there is no significant wage gap among employees with equivalent jobs (department general manager equivalent: 95.8%, section manager level: 102.1%, non-manager level: 87.4%). The wage gap is expected to decrease over the medium to long term as we aim to achieve its target female manager ratio (at least 20% female managers by FY2030).
