Outline of Final Research Achievements

Recently, the trend of female medical doctors leaving their jobs due to difficulties in balancing her clinical work and housework has become an issue in Japan. In this study, we analyzed medical doctors working in hospitals and other medical facilities who have relatively young child(ren), with the objective to identify the characteristics of medical doctors who are prone to leave their current employment.Various support plans are indispensable to allow female medical doctors in Japan to continue their clinical practice after marriage and childbirth without leaving job. However, the trend of female doctors leaving current employment after childbirth was not clarified in this study due to the characteristics of the survey. Further study is required.
