Complete Guide to Applying for Reduced Working Hours Pay During Childcare Period

I've finally started reduced working hours for childcare.

I finish 4 hours earlier, and it's so great! However, I spend two hours from 2 PM to 4 PM doing housework (laundry, cleaning, dishes, etc.), so I feel even more tired...

Once I finish the housework, I have to pick up my daughter from daycare, so even when I'm resting, it doesn't feel like I am..

Now! Just because I finish early doesn't mean I can be happy. Since my working hours are reduced, my salary will also be reduced, so I need to apply to the government for childcare allowance.

In this Complete Guide to Applying for Reduced Working Hours Childcare Allowance!, we'll first check the application requirements and the steps to take before applying.

Let's go!!

At first, not knowing much, I searched a lot to find out how to do it. I did the same thing..

I see this kind of thing in the application form, but it's hard to notice.

Forget it!!!

Let me briefly summarize it.

1. Your child must be under 8 years old or in the second grade of elementary school or younger.

2. During the reduced working hours period, your working hours must be at least 15 hours but not more than 35 hours per week!!

3. The period is one year, but it can be extended to two years if you haven't taken parental leave!!

4. It can be divided into three-month periods, but it's better to use it all at once!!

5. You must have worked for six months or more as of the start date of reduced working hours.

There doesn't seem to be much to worry about.

1. First, I submit the application form to the company for confirmation and get approval, then I make a copy. I've attached the form I used~

2. You need to fill out a document called "Reduced Working Hours Confirmation" on the Employment Insurance website. You can send it by fax to the employment center after writing it by hand, but why bother...? You can do it all directly on the website. The world has become such a better place~

3. You can either tell the person in charge or, if you can log in with your company's digital certificate, you can enter it yourself.
After logging into Employment Insurance, you'll see "Reduced Working Hours Confirmation" on the left. Once you go there,

Enter the reduced working hours period, employee name, child's name, and reduced working hours (e.g., from 40 hours per week (8 hours per day) to 25 hours per week/15 hours reduction).

This part is easy. Now, there's a box to enter the usual wage.

Usually, you enter your pre-tax salary. It's stated in your employment contract and you can also check your payslip.

In my case, my base pay + additional overtime pay was stated as my salary in my employment contract.

For example, I entered 2.8 million won as my usual wage, and the standard working hours are usually 209 hours.

Next, for the salary payment details, since I haven't received any salary yet even though I started reduced working hours, I leave it blank and go to the attachments.

4. List of files to be attached (the more, the better it seems^^)
It's simple. Attach everything in one go: your previous payslips, your employment contract, and the application form I uploaded as an attachment.

You only need to send these three things. Once you send it, it will say "processing" until the employee applies for the allowance; this is normal.

To check if the confirmation request was successful using your company ID, log in with your personal employee ID and

look under the Maternal Protection section on the left

• Childcare Reduced Working Hours Allowance ApplicationGo here and

Search for "Employer Submission Documents" and if you see your reduced working hours application period, your application has been successfully submitted. You only need to apply for the confirmation once.

Now that you've completed the Reduced Working Hours Confirmation, you can finish early for a month, participate in childcare, or do what you need to do and wait. You can apply one month after starting reduced working hours.ㅜ Let's wait...

This is the pre-application stage for reduced working hours allowance. It's not difficult. You can do it if you try.

Thank you for reading. Fighting to all workers.
