Employment-to-population ratioとは 意味・読み方・使い方

The labor force participation rate of women in Japan, unlike in Western European countries where the rate has risen substantially in the past 40 years, was higher than in other countries at the time of the 1920 Population Census , which put the figure at 53%, due to the high proportion of self-employment including in farming households. The rate fell until the mid-1970s owing primarily to the decline in the ratio of self-employed households after the Second World War, and then went through a period of increase due to the spread of part-time employment of full-time housewives in salaried workers' households (Fig. 3-1-2).例文帳に追加

我が国の女性の労働力率は、西欧諸国においてこの40年間に大きく上昇したのとは異なり、農家を含めた自営業の比率の高さのため1920年の国勢調査においても53％と諸外国より高く、戦後自営業世帯比率の低下を主因として1970年代半ばまで低下し、その後サラリーマン世帯の専業主婦のパート労働の普及により上昇するという変動過程を経てきた（第3-1-2図）。 - 経済産業省
