Tokyo Metropolitan Government: Caregiving Leave Acquisition Support Incentive (FY2026)

Tokyo Metropolitan Government's support program designed to help workers and employers manage both caregiving responsibilities and work obligations by providing incentive payments to those taking nursing care leave. Eligible applicants include workers employed by companies in Tokyo and small-to-medium-sized enterprises that employ such workers. Support covers wage loss compensation for workers taking nursing care leave and employee recruitment/retention costs for employers, with specific subsidy amounts determined by leave duration and company size. Applicants must comply with the Childcare and Family Care Leave Act and take nursing care leave appropriately. Applicants should consult Tokyo Metropolitan Government's official website for program details and application deadlines, with early application strongly recommended.
