In 2023, the number of non-full-time employees in Japan's taxicab sector stood around 83.5 thousand persons. The forecast suggests a gradual increase, reaching approximately 85.04 thousand persons by 2028. This indicates a steady but slow growth trend, with a consistent year-on-year increase averaging about 0.3%. Over the five-year period, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) reflects a minor upward trajectory, underscoring a stable sector.

Future trends to watch for:

Advancements in ride-sharing technologies and their potential impact on traditional taxicab employment.
Regulatory changes influencing part-time employment norms within the industry.
Increasing urbanization could boost demand, potentially affecting employment figures in the long term.
