Full-time, permanent employees with indefinite contracts.
Definition
Regular Employees (常時雇用労働者) are a key classification under Japanese labor law and for gender pay gap reporting. They generally refer to employees who are hired for an indefinite period, typically on a full-time basis, and are considered to have stable employment with comprehensive protections under labor laws. Their remuneration and working conditions often differ from those of non-regular employees, making their separate analysis crucial for understanding pay equity.
