As a measure to prevent the spread of the new coronavirus, regular employment and non-regular employment are required in order to cope with a decrease in income due to the absence of employees who are guardians of children who attend elementary schools, etc. Regardless of employment, in addition to the annual paid leave of the Labor Standards Act, we will create a subsidy for companies that have paid leave taken.
This time, we have posted the details of the grant procedure, application style and specific application procedures.
