韓國頒布熄燈令 激勵職員多“造人”

South Korea's health ministry, which is charged with boosting the nation's low birthrate, is turning off the lights in its offices once a month to encourage staff to go home early and make more babies.

The ministry said in a statement Wednesday the switches will be flicked at 7.30 pm every third Wednesday in the month to "help staff get dedicated to childbirth and upbringing".

Those with urgent duties will be exempt from the switch-off.

"Going home early may have no direct link to having more kids, but you cannot just completely rule out a possible link between them," Choi Jin-Sun, who is in charge of the project at the ministry, told reporters.

Low birthrate is a pressing issue in this fast-ageing society.

South Korea's birthrate -- the average number of babies born during a woman's lifetime -- remained near the world's lowest at 1.19 in 2008 and there are fears the population will begin shrinking within a decade.

"It won't be too long before our children are burdened with supporting the elderly," Health Minister Jeon Jae-Hee told the Korea Times newspaper.

"Korea may lose out in the global economic competition due to a lack of manpower. It is actually the most urgent and important issue the country is facing."

Married staff at the ministry are not doing their bit, with an average of 1.63 children compared to the average of 1.82 among all civil servants. The ministry aims to increase the figure to 2.0 in two years.

The ministry has various other incentives, including cash gifts, for staff who produce more than two babies. Some local governments also run schemes or even matchmaking services to boost the birthrate.

負責提高全國出生率的韓國衛(wèi)生部日前宣布該部辦公樓每月提前熄燈一晚,以鼓勵職員提早回家“造人”。

韓國衛(wèi)生部于本周三發(fā)表聲明稱,今后該部辦公室將于每月第三個星期三的晚上七點半準時熄燈,以讓“員工有更多的時間和精力去生兒育女”。

不過有緊急公務(wù)在身的人可以例外。

衛(wèi)生部負責這一項目的崔珍善在接受記者采訪時說:“早點回家可能和多生孩子沒有直接關(guān)系,但也不是完全沒有關(guān)系?!?/font>

韓國社會老齡化迅速,低出生率是當下的一個緊迫問題。

韓國2008年的出生率(即一名女性一生平均所生育的孩子數(shù)量)為1.19,接近世界最低水平,有人擔心韓國人口在十年之內(nèi)會開始萎縮。

衛(wèi)生部部長全在熙接受《韓國時報》采訪時說:“用不了多久,我們的孩子就要承擔起贍養(yǎng)老人的重擔?!?/font>

“勞動力的缺乏會使韓國無法應(yīng)對世界經(jīng)濟競爭。這實際上是目前韓國所面臨的最緊迫、最重要的問題?!?/font>

衛(wèi)生部中的已婚職員沒有盡到“本分”,相對于所有公務(wù)員1.82的平均生育率,該部職員的平均生育率僅為1.63。衛(wèi)生部計劃在兩年內(nèi)將這一數(shù)字提高到2.0。

韓國衛(wèi)生部還推出了其他一些激勵措施,包括對生育兩個以上子女的職員給予現(xiàn)金獎勵。一些地方政府也推出刺激計劃甚至提供婚姻介紹服務(wù)來提高生育率。
