This is the fourth consecutive year that an increase has been recommended, and it aims to narrow the salary gap with private companies and address the labor shortage. If the recommendation is implemented, the average annual salary of administrative staff will increase by approximately 211,000 yen to 6,534,000 yen. This will affect approximately 19,274 employees, including teachers and police officers.
