Despite the thirty years of the implement of the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, gender inequality in employment still remains unsolved. The primary factor of the gender inequality in employment in Japan is the deep-seated stereotyped roles for men and women in Japanese society. Child rearing and household affairs are largely regarded as women’s duties and about 60 percent of female workforce retires for childbearing. The second factor is corporate systems and customs deeply rooted in Japanese business community, which are only superficially gender-neutral. For instance, assessment standards of typical wage systems include subjective criteria that are susceptible to gender views of assessors, e.g. “enthusiasm,” “cooperativeness” and “tractability.” This article analyzes the current status of the doctrine of leading cases in relation to gender inequality in Japan, and proposes development of a framework to enhance the effectiveness of anti-discriminatory legislation, an efficient working- hour law to reduce long working hours of male labor force, and a system to apply the principle of equal pay for equal value work to the norms of lawsuit.

研究成果の概要:雇用分野における複合差別禁止法理が有する差別の是正・救済可能性を明らかにするために、近年のイギリス、EU、日本の雇用差別をめぐる立法動向と判例法理について研究した。これら一連の研究から、イギリスの2010年平等法が各種の差別是正について効果をあげていること、日本にも存在するマイノリティ女性の複合的差別状況の解決を図る方法としては包括的差別禁止立法の構想が重要であることが明らかになった。
