Fukuoka City will begin offering subsidies to small and medium-sized enterprises that assist employees with student loan repayments, aiming to attract and retain young workers. Under the new program, companies based in Fukuoka that include loan repayment support in their employment policies can receive city subsidies covering half of their contributions, up to ¥500,000 per company. Eligible employees must be full-time staff working in Fukuoka who are currently repaying or planning to repay student loans. Applications open July 1. Source: Fukuoka City
