| 研究実績の概要 |
In 2022, we continued to collect employee data to further add to our database. We published academic papers and presented at academic conferences on topics related to gender inequality and well-being in the workplace. Our work on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) received recognition from the press and from the general audience, and were featured in several media outlets. The topic of DEI is now mentioned on a regular basis in Japan. Our research is ideally positioned to better understand and to advance DEI in Japanese society. We look forward to making a contribution in this area through our theoretical and empirical research.

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
We plan to start hypothesis testing and data analyses in the second half of 2023. We are particularly interested in examining how deviations from the ideal worker model may affect particular outcomes such as promotion and pay. We have collected sufficient data from companies to construct a hypothetical ideal worker along such attributes as gender, work hours, willingness to do overtime work, willingness to participate in social activities after work, etc. We hypothesize that workers who deviate from the (hypothetical) ideal worker will be positioned at a disadvantage relative to those who maintain and behave according to the norm.
Also in 2023, we will continue to collect employee data from companies that we have worked with in the past.
