According to the results, the working hours required to comply with the rules and regulations account for over 20% of the total labor input. This cost is higher in the finance and insurance industry, followed by health and welfare; moreover, it is higher in large firms. A large proportion of the working hours of high-wage workers are devoted to compliance tasks. If these costs were halved, overall economic productivity would increase by approximately 8%. This suggests the importance of reducing costs through deregulation and digitalization.
