If a company requires parents to take paid leave in addition to their legal annual paid leave, it will be subsidized for the same amount as the wages paid.
The target period of this system was until the end of March, but the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare has decided to extend it until the end of June because the influence of the new corona continues.
