At the beginning of the Year of the Dragon, the family service platform Swan Daojia released a blockbuster employee benefit: starting from this year, it will provide "free confinement services" for employees who give birth to babies. Swan Daojia said that the policy is mainly to effectively help employees solve family care problems, and express the company's care and support for newborn families.
This is after the selection of "Swan Star" by outstanding workers and the "Goose Treasure Project", a public welfare project to help the children of blue-collar workers, the platform once again leads the innovation of empowering the housekeeping industry in the industry, and at the same time plays a role in encouraging fertility policies.
According to the "Swan Home Employee Confinement Lady Welfare Program", specific measures include, on the basis of the exemption of service fees, Swan Home will provide employees with a certain subsidy to pay the salary of the confinement nanny. The welfare standard is above the "gold" level confinement lady in the city, and the service ** of the 26-day cycle is the upper limit of the subsidy (including service fee exemption).
The scope of the confinement nanny benefit is applicable to all employees of the company (including the wives of male employees), "the application must meet the time of birth of the newborn (or the expected date of delivery) and have been one year from the time of employment". The above scheme will take effect on January 1, 2024 for a trial period of one year, and will continue to take effect on January 1 of the following year unless otherwise specified after expiration.
Chen Xiaohua, founder and CEO of Swan Daojia, also responded to employees' concerns on social platforms and reminded: "Orderly pregnancy, the policy is more than one year. ”
In fact, the news about "Swan Home to provide confinement benefits for employees" has been spread on social platforms a month ago. As soon as this welfare policy was released, it received positive feedback and wide acclaim from a large number of employees, who said that the benefits provided by the company were very "practical" and "actively responded to the call of the country", and even some employees said that they would "striv" to catch up with the first wave of benefits in the Year of the Dragon.
In recent years, with the trend of declining birthrate and aging population in China, population development has always been an important topic of social concern. The first economic work conference held at the end of last year proposed to "accelerate the improvement of the birth support policy system". Yang Wenzhuang, director of the Department of Population and Family of the National Health Commission, said that this year, it is necessary to strengthen overall planning and coordination, strive to solve a number of difficult and blocking problems that the masses are concerned about, and promote the reduction of family burdens.
According to public reports, in 2022, the "Guiding Opinions on Further Improving and Implementing Positive Childbirth Support Measures" was released. In 2023, the state will increase the special additional deduction standard for individual income tax for the care of infants and young children under the age of 3 from 1,000 yuan to 2,000 yuan per month for each infant and young child. More than 10 provinces have explored the implementation of childcare subsidy systems at different levels. In 2024, more specific support measures will be introduced in terms of improving the level of eugenics, improving the maternity leave and treatment guarantee mechanism, strengthening support measures such as housing taxes, strengthening the supply of high-quality educational resources, and building a childbirth-friendly employment environment.
