Answer:
Adding low-cost or zero-cost infant day care and preschool centers to allow mothers to return to the workforce to make it easier to have and pay for children
Explanation:
Despite having one of the largest HDIs in the world, Japan has a very low birth rate. The population is marjoritly old and this causes economic problems that will be difficult to solve in the long run.
One of the main reasons why the population claims to be the birth problem in the country is the difficulty of economic stability. Japanese companies use outsourced work a lot, which is temporary and does not promote good wages. These wages are even lower for women. This means that young people do not have the money to build a family and couples cannot afford all the expenses of raising a child. Based on this, a way for local governments, companies and corporations to encourage an increase in the birth rate would be to create low-cost or zero-cost day care centers and preschools to allow mothers to return to the labor market to make it easier to have and pay for the children.
Answer: B) Adding low-cost or zero-cost infant day care and preschool centers to allow mothers to return to the workforce to make it easier to have and pay for children
