Summary The Japanese Panel Study of Employment Dynamics (JPSED) is an annual follow-up survey of the employment status, income, and work conditions of individuals during the year prior to the survey. The purpose of the JPSED is to compile and publish the Works Index and to grasp the actual status of employment and non-employment in Japan and its changes. The purpose of the Japanese Panel Study of Employment Dynamics is to track the employment status, income, and work status of individuals during the year prior to the survey and to compile and publish a Works Index. This survey was conducted as the seventh survey. (See also the official website of the National Panel Survey of Employment Status: https://www.works-i.com/surveys/panel-surveys.html)
This survey also seeks to clarify the actual status of side jobs among employed workers by conducting an additional survey of those who had side or concurrent jobs from January to December 2021.

Sampling Procedure Non-probability: Quota
The data from the "Labor Force Survey" of the Statistics Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications were used to make allocations by gender, age, class strata, employment status, regional block, and educational background. The allocation was set to reflect the population. However, the non-working population of teenagers and those aged 70 and over were allocated smaller numbers than in reality. Specifically, the allocation was as follows.

Gender: male/female
Age: 15-19/20-24/25-34/35-44/45-54/55-64/65-69/70-74/75 and over
Employment status: labor force/non-labor force
Employment status: self-employed workers/family employees/officers/full-time/non-full-time/unemployed
Academic background: less than a college graduate/above a college graduate/currently enrolled in school
Residence: 11 areas: Hokkaido /Tohoku /South Kanto /North Kanto and Koshin /Hokuriku /Tokai /Kinki /Chugoku /Shikoku /Kyushu /Okinawa

Weighting is conducted so that the composition of gender, age, employment status, and education reflects the population.
The report includes the results after weighting (56,736 persons after weighting).
