This study examined gender differences in career mobility in professions with a high proportion of men and in professions with a high proportion of women using 2017–2021 Japanese Panel Study of Employment Dynamics data (JPSED). The results of the mobility table and multivariate analysis found that although there were no gender differences in the turnover rates of professions with a high percentage of women (regular employment), the turnover rates of women in professions with a high percentage of men (regular employment) were much lower than the turnover rates of men. As age increased, the gender gap in professions with a high percentage of men became larger, arguably due to the impact of life events such as marriage and child-rearing. Previous studies have demonstrated an equalization of the sex ratio in professions with a high percentage of men. However, the analysis in this study revealed that many more women than men leave professions with a high proportion of men in the course of their careers, resulting in the re-segregation of gender roles, thus, maintaining the gender system within the organization. Conversely, men in professions with a high proportion of women were not found to be disadvantaged in career mobility.
