Article 138Childbirth Allowance

第百三十八条(出産手当金)

Childbirth allowance is paid to a specially-insured day laborer eligible for payment of lump-sum allowance for childbirth and childcare in the period during which the laborer does not engage in labor, starting 42 days (98 days in the case of multiple fetuses) preceding the day of childbirth (the scheduled date of childbirth if the day of childbirth is after the scheduled date of childbirth) and ending 56 days following the day of childbirth.

出産育児一時金の支給を受けることができる日雇特例被保険者には、出産の日(出産の日が出産の予定日後であるときは、出産の予定日)以前四十二日(多胎妊娠の場合においては、九十八日)から出産の日後五十六日までの間において労務に服さなかった期間、出産手当金を支給する。

The amount of childbirth allowance per day is an amount equivalent to 1/45th of the largest of the monthly total of the specially-insured laborer's standard daily wages pertaining to the days for which insurance premiums were paid in the four months preceding the month including the day of childbirth.

出産手当金の額は、一日につき、出産の日の属する月の前四月間の保険料が納付された日に係る当該日雇特例被保険者の標準賃金日額の各月ごとの合算額のうち最大のものの四十五分の一に相当する金額とする。
