Employment and Economic Support During the COVID-19 Pandemic

「The company continues to provide financial support during leave to fixed-term employees, including part-time, temporary and contract workers, who have been working through Baitoru, Baitoru NEXT or Hatarako.net since 1 March 2017 and are forced to take leave after contracting COVID-19. The support is equivalent to half a month’s income, considered necessary for the treatment period, up to ¥100,000.」

「In March 2020, in response to nationwide temporary school closures introduced as a measure against COVID-19, we provided free short-term job-posting slots on the Baitoru job information service to support client companies struggling with employee attendance and sudden staff shortages. We also launched a special page collecting work-from-home and remote-work positions for people who had difficulty commuting because of the spread of infection, and began providing free job-posting slots on that page. In addition, when fixed-term employees, including part-time, temporary and contract workers, who had been working through Baitoru, Baitoru NEXT or Hatarako.net since 1 March 2017 became infected with COVID-19 and were forced to take leave, we implemented an economic support measure providing an amount equivalent to half a month's income, the amount said to be required for the treatment period, up to ¥100,000.」
