| Summary |
In Japan, the number of LGBT (an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) and other sexual minority groups who come out at work and in society is still tiny, making it difficult to understand what difficulties they face and what needs they have. In order to promote LGBT policies in the workplace and elsewhere, it is necessary to state their effectiveness clearly. The purpose of this survey is to accumulate data on Japan in order to promote the creation of workplaces where LGBT and other sexual minorities can work comfortably while also considering overall diversity policies. The purpose is also to return the results of this survey to society at large by releasing the data with personal information removed to enable secondary analysis for academic purposes. |
