[Ulsan] Holding a Lunch Box Debate with Multi-Child Public Officials to Overcome Low Fertility

Ulsan City invited 50 multi-child government officials with more than three children to hold a "lunch discussion" to solve the low birth rate and childcare problems.

At the forum, Kim Joo-hwan, a firefighter from Ulsan Jungbu Fire Station with five children, was promoted for the first time in the country to encourage multi-child employees.

To solve the low birth rate problem, Ulsan City has opened and operated the Ulsan City Child Care Center in August, which provides support such as first-time meeting passes, child allowances, and childbirth congratulatory money.

Starting next year, we will pay grandparents and grandparents who take care of their grandchildren a "grandparents' grandchild care allowance" and push for support projects such as "Child Culture Pass Card Payment" and "Storied Noise Prevention Mat Support."

Ulsan Mayor Kim Doo-gyeom said, "This event is the first step toward creating a family-friendly workplace culture and strengthening response to low birth rates. In the future, we will create a social atmosphere in which Ulsan's multi-child families are respected and supported, and implement sustainable Ulsan-type population policies and policies to respond to low birth rates."
