| 摘要 | Although female labor participation is over 70% in Japan, the gender gap remains large in terms of the wage and the proportion of women in decision-making roles. One significant factor is that in Japan, the burden of housekeeping falls primarily to women.Childbirth leave, even if only for two or three weeks, nudges men to start playing their part in housework and family duties. However, the rate of men who take childcare leave remains staggeringly low at a mere 6.16%.I believe paternity leave should be made mandatory. A mandatory childcare leave immediately after birth will combat the declining birthrate, empower women, and make men happier. It's a way for Japan to have its cake and eat it too, with extra frosting and sprinkles on top. |
