**第一項**  前条第一項の規定により日雇関係組合から徴収する日雇拠出金の額は、当該年度の概算日雇拠出金の額とする。ただし、前年度の概算日雇拠出金の額が前年度の確定日雇拠出金の額を超えるときは、当該年度の概算日雇拠出金の額からその超える額を控除して得た額とするものとし、前年度の概算日雇拠出金の額が前年度の確定日雇拠出金の額に満たないときは、当該年度の概算日雇拠出金の額にその満たない額を加算して得た額とする。

The amount of day laborer contributions collected from a day labor health society pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (1) of the preceding Article is the estimated amount of day laborer contributions for the relevant fiscal year; provided, however, that when the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for the preceding fiscal year exceeds the fixed amount of day laborer contributions in that fiscal year, the amount is the amount obtained by deducting the amount of excess from the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for that year, and when the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for the preceding fiscal year is less than the fixed amount of day laborer contributions in that fiscal year, the amount is the amount obtained by adding that amount of deficit to the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for that year.
<sup>Ministry of Justice translation with a slip corrected by this site — not the Ministry's text; the Ministry printed: "The amount of day laborer contributions collected from a day labor health society pursuant to the provisions of the preceding paragraph is the estimated amount of day laborer contributions for the relevant fiscal year; provided, however, that when the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for the preceding fiscal year exceeds the fixed amount of day laborer contributions in that fiscal year, the amount is the amount obtained by deducting the amount of excess from the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for that year, and when the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for the preceding fiscal year is less than the fixed amount of day laborer contributions in that fiscal year, the amount is the amount obtained by adding that amount of deficit to the amount of estimated day laborer contributions for that year." — https://www.japaneselawtranslation.go.jp/en/laws/view/3266/tb</sup>
