Topics of 'Workstyle Fixed-Point Observation 2025'
Facing structural labor supply constraints such as labor shortages, individual employment continuity supporting the labor supply has steadily progressed over the past decade. Specifically, the situation where women continue working even after childbirth is becoming established. Among women with preschool children, the ratio of regular employment has exceeded 40%, and the total employment ratio including non-regular employment has increased to nearly 70%. The employment rate of those with fixed-term contracts from the previous year also remains above 90%, maintaining employment stability. On the other hand, challenges remain in labor mobility and learning. The job change rate among those who wished to change jobs in the previous year was 11.8%, a decrease of 2.7 percentage points over 10 years, indicating a persistent gap between the desire to change jobs and its realization. Furthermore, the implementation of 'work-related learning,' which is crucial for individual career development, still has significant room for improvement.
