【Note on wage differences between male and female】

  • a) There are no gender differences in personnel or wage systems.
  • b) Regarding “Regular employees,” there are fewer women in managerial positions at the manager level or above, but we are promoting the appointment of female employees to managerial positions. There are no gender differences in wages based on job title.
  • c) Regarding “Partner/fixed-term employees,” women account for approximately 70% of the workforce, and approximately 40% of those women work within the scope of their dependents' support, which results in wage differences.
    The Group respects diverse work styles, such as the desire to work within the scope of dependents' support, and many people are actively working at the Group.
