Reuters quoted the Japanese government sources on Thursday, as saying that Japanese workers’ monthly wages were underestimated by 0.6% on average in the 2012-2018 period due to a faulty polling method that came to light recently.
The sources added: “The government is set to revise its budget draft for the next fiscal year starting April 1 by adding 650 million yen ($5.96 million) in spending to make up for a shortfall of employment insurance benefits caused by the wages data errors.”
