B-style Media Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Masafumi Ishibashi), operator of the job site 'Shufu JOB' under the B-style Group, has compiled the 'Average Age of Job-Switching Homemakers' based on actual hiring data.

### Trends

The average age of homemakers switching jobs was 46.2 years, up 0.3 years from the previous month and up 1.7 years from the same month last year.

April is a month where school activities resume after spring break, making it easier for parents to engage in job-hunting activities.

Looking at the composition by age group, the ratio of those in their 50s and above exceeded 40%, and the ratio of those aged 60 and above maintained a high level at 10.0%.

If the trend follows previous years, job-hunting activities for parents are likely to remain active until the summer break. Consequently, the proportion of those in their 30s and 40s is expected to rise, potentially causing the average age to level off or trend slightly downward.
