国家公務員一般職、コロナ対応で合格者最多　女性初の４割超

　人事院は１６日、２０２２年度国家公務員一般職採用試験（大卒程度）の合格者が８１５６人だったと発表した。前年度比で６０３人増え、一般職試験が始まった１２年度以降で最多となった。新型コロナウイルス関連業務などに対応するため、各府省で採用予定者数を増やしたことが影響した。
　競争率は３．４倍（前年度３．６倍）で、２年連続で最低。一方、女性合格者は３２７１人（同２９１０人）で全体に占める割合は４０．１％（同３８．５％）となり、初めて４割を超えた。人事院や各府省が女性向けの採用説明会に力を入れた結果、受験者の増加につながったとみられる。（2022/08/16-09:32）

Passers of Japan's national public servant examination for general-staff positions, mainly for clerical work, for fiscal 2022 increased by 603 from the previous year to 8,156, the highest since the general-staff examination started in fiscal 2012, the National Personnel Authority said Tuesday.
   The total went up as government ministries and agencies boosted recruitment of staff to be involved in pandemic-related responses.
   The applicant-to-passer ratio stood at 3.4 times, down from the previous year's 3.6 times, hitting a record low for the second straight year.
   Of the total passers, 3,271 were women. The share of female passers came to 40.1 pct, topping 40 pct for the first time, apparently as the number of female applicants increased after the personnel authority, as well as government ministries and agencies, actively held recruiting events targeting women.
