hey my girlfriend is expecting. we live in mokpo. She is due in august. She is starting a new job in march we were wondring about childcare in mokpo for newborns, and also the possibilty of her new job giving her time off. shes hasnt told he newboss yet because she is worried they might withdraw the job offer…..any help would be greatly appriciated
Hello Furio, thanks for your inquiry. According to Labor Law clause 1, article 74, employers should give 90 days maternity leave. Furthermore, your girlfriend may receive salary during first 60 days of the maternity leave, based on clause 3 of the same article. By law it’s possible, but reality may say otherwise because she just starts working. So we suggest you to discuss that with the director, which we think the sooner the better.
In addition, here are the kindergardens which specialize baby in Mokpo :
