Ipsos in 2018 revealed that the most common issue women in Japan faced was balancing work and caring responsibilities. The amount of unpaid work carried out by women, such as housework and childcare, was seen as the second major problem according to the survey respondents in Japan. While a total of 48 percent considered those two obstacles as most profound, about 40 percent named sexual violence and sexual harassment as the most prominent concerns among the female population in Japan.
