Liberal Democrats Propose Proposal of Equivalent Earnings to Take Childcare Leave for Four Weeks after Birth 13:39 on March 29
To encourage men to take childcare leave, the LDP has recommended to the government that if they take childcare leave four weeks after giving birth, they will earn substantially the same amount of income as before the leave.
The rate of men taking childcare leave was still low at just over 6% in October, and the LDP working team has put forward recommendations to the government to encourage it.
According to the recommendation, four weeks after childbirth are considered a special period, and the benefits paid for taking childcare leave are increased to 67% of the current pre-work leave wages. I'm asking them to make money.
In addition, in order to create an environment where employees can easily take childcare leave, the company should oblige companies to disseminate the system and make the procedure easier by allowing them to apply immediately before.
In addition to the "Mother and Child Health Handbook," a "Father and Child Handbook" will be issued, which includes encouraging active participation in childcare, and the working team will make a recommendation to the government this week.
