| Summary | On October 6, 2022, DURGA EVEREST KITCHEN, a restaurant business located at 54 Iwai-cho, Hodogaya-ku, Yokohama City, submitted false application documents claiming to have suspended employment for workers who had already resigned. They unlawfully received employment adjustment subsidies, specifically the employment adjustment subsidy (雇用調整助成金). The subsidy amount was 4,841,965 yen, of which some has been repaid. The false claims included asserting that workers were on leave when they had already resigned, and falsely reported wages that did not reflect actual conditions. The Kanagawa Labour Bureau publicly announced this enforcement action, citing violations of the employment subsidy regulations. |
