    Japan: Workers Sent Home to Procreate


    :
    How often does your employer request that you leave work early to go have sex? Probably not very often. But this practice has become a policy for Japanesse companies such as Canon. Why do they want their workers to get busy in the bedroom rather than just in the boardroom? To combat the low birth rate that is now plaguing the Japanese population. Right now their birthrate is 1.34, but an average of 2.0 is what is required to keep their population steady.

    According to CNN, twice a week high tech giant Canon is allowing their employees to leave work early for some good old -fashioned baby making. In a culture where twelve hour work days are the norm, couples are too tired and busy to start a family. This is cited as one of the main reasons in the drop in births in addition to a high cost of living and “social rigidity toward women and parenting.”

    This policy to push for procreation may soon become popular with other Japanese companies soon as well. Japan’s largest business organization Keidanren also urged their members to let their employees go home early to get some lovin’. Forget the overtime, this sounds like a great benefit to all.

    Why is Japan proud enough of their history to do this, yet Europe and the US are not?
