"Lesson for support of leave" Up to approximately 330,000 yen per month to LDP proposal New Corona May 18 19:07

Due to the spread of the new coronavirus, the Liberal Democratic Party will make a proposal for the government to directly pay benefits to those who can not receive leave allowance from their employers, up to about 330,000 yen per month, and propose to the government. .

Due to the lack of growth in applications for employment adjustment subsidies to subsidize companies that maintain employment by paying employees for leave, the Liberal Democratic Party's work team decided to target people who could not receive leave allowances from their employers. Has been studying for the establishment of a system for "leave of absence support" where the government directly pays benefits.

As a result, at the meeting on the 18th, we agreed that the maximum amount of "Leisure Support Assistance" would be about 330,000 yen per month, and we would recommend it to the government.

So far, the work team has compiled a plan to raise the maximum amount of employment adjustment subsidy, which is currently 8330 yen per person per day, to 15,000 yen. The government's general account is supposed to cover the financial resources necessary for these measures, and the LDP is requesting the government to include it in the second supplementary budget.
