What is the Jobmore Salary Database?

In reporting on wages and job changes, while government statistics are used as primary sources, media companies have had to individually create cross-tabulations by 'occupation,' 'prefecture,' and 'employment type,' posing a significant burden on editorial teams.

Since the launch of its job service 'Jobmore' in October 2025, the company has accumulated about 3.16 million job data points acquired from multiple job boards, continuing its own tabulations. Furthermore, it has built a cross-validation mechanism comparing this data with four types of government statistics: the Basic Survey on Wage Structure, the Labour Force Survey, Statistics on Employment Security Operations, and the Survey on Employment Trends. This database releases these results to the media in a 'freely quotable format with attribution.'
