摘要：Regional disparities in the labor market are widening drastically. With
economic recovery under way, the number of job offers has increased
considerably in the Kanto and Tokai areas and the effective job offer-job
seeker ratio is far above 1.0, indicating a labor shortage. In contrast, the
number of job offers is not increasing to the same extent in Hokkaido, Tohoku,
Shikoku and Kyushu areas, and in many prefectures within these areas, the
effective job offer-job seeker ratio remains under 1.0. The latest figures
demonstrate that the ratio is, in effect, falling in several prefectures.
