| Research Abstract |
In the midst of globalization, a declining birth rate, and an aging population, it has long been recognized in Japan that the female workforce needs to be better utilized in the Japanese labor market. Among developed countries, Japan lags in terms of the utilizing its female workforce. Various interrelated factors—including the custom of lifetime employment, long working hours for full-time employees, lack of measures to support work-childcare balance, discrimination against female employees in the workplace, and a lack of job market awareness among working women—are responsible for this lag in female workforce participation. However, if female workforce participation can enhance corporate earnings and competitiveness (a growing need in the current economic environment), then actively promoting the utilization of the female workforce may help companies improve their performance.
