In February 2026, the senior-specialized job site 'Senior Job' added an administrator function that allows for aggregating job numbers filtered by conditions such as job type retroactively (*1). However, the job conditions that can be set here are limited to job type, prefecture, region, employment type, and salary range. Specific features like '70+ welcome' or 'no retirement age' could not be set, making retrospective investigations impossible.

Therefore, we collected data from past survey records that tracked the total number of jobs posted on the site, as well as the number of '60+ welcome' and '70+ welcome' jobs. From points in time spaced roughly six months or more apart, we extracted data from five specific dates—December 12, 2023 (*2), September 10, 2024 (*3), March 12, 2025 (*4), November 5, 2025 (*5), and March 18, 2026 (*6)—and investigated the trends over this period.
