HRogWageNow has been delivering the weekly index on a 2 week lag every Monday and in the event of a public holiday or a company holiday we have delivered the data the next business day. To enable faster delivery of our data, we will be delivering the data every Monday regardless of whether the day falls on a public holiday or company holiday. Our monthly index will be delivered on the second Monday of the month. The updated schedule can be checked from <a href="https://hrogwagenow.com/en/schedule/">here</a>. This policy change will be first applied for the delivery on April 29th (Showa Day) which was initially scheduled for the following business day on April 30th.

Data Delivery Day Change for Index

Until now, &quot;HRog Wage Now&quot; has provided indices exclusively for full-time jobs. However, starting from March 8, 2024, we are expanding our offerings to include the Wage Index and Job Postings Index for part-time jobs as well.For these newly introduced &quot;Part-time&quot; indices, we offer two distinct series: one series utilizes data from both private job posting sites (i.e., those not owned by the government) and the government-operated &quot;Hello Work Internet Service&quot; (hereinafter referred to as &quot;Hello Work&quot;), while the other series exclusively relies on private job posting sites as its source data. This approach is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the labor market, capturing aspects that may be overlooked in official statistics.Below are the change details.<h3 id="h61e09c1572">Data</h3>- Addition of &quot;Employment Type&quot; column:Added a column to indicate whether the job posting is for &quot;Part-time&quot; (new series) or &quot;Full-time&quot;- Addition of &quot;Job Posting Publisher&quot; column:Added a column to specify if the source data includes both private job posting sites and &quot;Hello Work,&quot; labeled as &quot;Public &amp; Private&quot; in the dataset, or if it includes only private job posting sites, labeled as &quot;Private Only.&quot;NOTE: The &quot;Part-time&quot; indices have both “Public &amp; Private” &amp; “Private Only” as options for the “Job Posting Publisher” column, while the existing “Full-time” indices are currently limited to the “Public &amp; Private” option for the column- Addition of &quot;Hourly Wage&quot; as a new data point to &quot;Wage Type&quot; column for &quot;Part-time&quot; indices<h3 id="h773fb72d72">Dashboard</h3>- Addition of &quot;Part-time&quot; charts to the &quot;Time Series View&quot; tabAdded charts to visualize two key indicators of the newly added &quot;Part-time&quot; indices to the &quot;Time Series View&quot; tab.
