The invention provides a sliding member, a clutch plate, and manufacturing methods for the same. In a manufacturing method for a sliding member, a nitrogen diffusion layer, a nitrogen compound layer, and an oxidation layer are formed by executing a first step of cooling a workpiece formed of a steel material after heating the workpiece in an atmosphere containing ammonia at 570 to 660 DEG C, a second step of performing, subsequently to the first step, tempering while pressurizing a front surface side of the workpiece, and a third step of performing, subsequently to the second step, steam treatment of heating the workpiece in a steam atmosphere.
