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.
Figures are as of June 1 of each fiscal year.
As of April 2023.
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: 102.6%, section manager level: 100.3%, non-manager level: 85.4%). 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).
