  • *4 Calculations based on the provisions of the Act on the Promotion of Women's Active Engagement in Professional Life (Act No. 64 of 2015)
    The gender wage gap among regular workers has seemingly been affected by the revision of the personnel system in 2017,
    whereby all part-time employees were converted into regular employees, as the majority of those converted were women.
    When the former part-time employees are excluded, the gender wage gap is 70.9%.
  • *5 Including non-permanent employees
    For calculation of the gender wage gap among non-permanent employees, the hours worked are converted into the number of employees.
