Quiz result summary

 Thank you to everyone who has answered our survey on work and life for women.

We were able to gather answers from 17 participants. The demographic of our survey was 76.5% female and 23.5% male. 76.5% of the survey was answered by people between the ages of 19 and 25, since most of the participants were from our university class.

Some notable results we got were

For question No.1,  7/17 people incorrectly answered that it is true that male clerical workers are higher than female percentage. This could mean that even for younger generations, there is still an image of men being the bread winner.

For question No. 5,  7/17 people incorrectly answered that it is true that equal pay is not an issue women face in their workplace. Despite the constitution demanding everyone be treated equally, there are still factors of prejudice that effects lower wages for women compared to men in Japan.

For Question No. 9, 12/16 people answered incorrectly that it is true remote work promotes better work life balance for everyone regardless of circumstances. This might hint that many university students enjoyed doing online classes and has a positive view on remote work. The fact that most participants are young students with no children to care for may have affected this answer.

Here are the survey results.
