Majority of taxi drivers are men, but because late-night work (between 22:00 and 5:00 the next morning) by women has been permitted even before the Labor Standards Act was revised in 1999, and thus there are some female drivers.
乗務員は男性が多いが、タクシー乗務員については1999年の労働基準法改正以前から女性の深夜労働（22時～5時）が認められており、女性の乗務員も少なからずいる。
