Following a series of cases in which babysitters requested through the matching app allegedly acted obscenely on children, the Cabinet Office obliges the app business operators to report when they know the suspected crime of babysitters. I have summarized the countermeasures.

The number of users is increasing for matching apps that can request babysitters, and some of the apps are subject to the "babysitter dispatch business" where the Cabinet Office subsidizes usage fees.

However, according to the Cabinet Office, two sitter men who were requested through one of the targeted applications ``Kidsline'' said that they acted obscenely on their children, and they were arrested one after another from April to last month. it was done.

Therefore, as a countermeasure, the Cabinet Office has revised the outline of this project and has shown it to the operators of apps.

Under the new guidelines, it is mandatory to report when a babysitter has suspected a crime against a child, and if necessary, the usage fee can be temporarily excluded from the subject of the subsidized business.

In addition to this, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare also summarized the precautions for users following this incident.

In addition to calling for babysitters in advance, we also recommend that you contact them by phone or e-mail or check their condition with a camera while you are leaving them.

The Cabinet Office and the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare continue to consider safety measures based on the opinions of experts and others.
