【Note on wage differentials between men and women】

  • a) There are no gender differences in the wage system.
  • b) As for "regular employees", there are differences in wages due to the large number of male workers in managerial positions at the section manager level and above. The Group is currently promoting the appointment of female workers to managerial positions.
  • c) The wage difference for "part-time and fixed-term workers" is due to the fact that they account for about 70% of the female workforce and about 40% of them are employees working within the scope of their dependents.
