Understanding the 2025 Childcare and Care Leave Act Revisions

On July 8 and July 14, 2025, Pasona Inc. will host a significant online seminar focused on women's empowerment and career support strategies. This event is particularly timely, as it coincides with the enforcement of the revised Childcare and Care Leave Act, set for April 2025.

Context of the Law Revision

The latest amendments to the Childcare and Care Leave Act emphasize the importance of 'individual intention confirmation interviews'. These interviews are designed to promote a more constructive dialogue between employers and employees regarding personal life events and career aspirations. This legislative change necessitates that companies enhance their ability to understand employee intentions and foster an environment conducive to open communication.

Key to this process is the strengthening of HR skills and management capacities to engage in meaningful conversations with employees, ensuring organizations can respond flexibly to their needs. The seminar presented by Pasona aims to shed light on these important regulatory changes and their implications for the workplace environment.
