How it's used
Focuses specifically on the tangible results or accomplishments of a politician or public official during their time in office. It carries a slightly formal or journalistic tone, often appearing in news reports or political commentary rather than casual daily chatter. When discussing someone's work in a private company, terms like 業績 are used instead.
