Violation

Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On June 23, 2023, the Fukuoka Labour Bureau publicly disclosed that Sozo Corporation, located in Nakasu, Hakata-ku, Fukuoka City, submitted false application documents claiming layoffs and employment that did not occur. The company improperly received 4,360,700 yen in emergency employment stability subsidies. The violations involved creating false documents asserting layoffs and employment, despite the company not actually conducting layoffs or employing staff, leading to unjust subsidy receipt. The company had partially refunded some of the amount. The case is documented in the 'List of Business Owners Who Illegally Received Subsidies' published by the Fukuoka Labour Bureau.
