The support system for balancing work and childcare have expanded under the measures againnts the declining birthrate, triggered by the so - called "1.57 shock," which the total fertility rate dropped down to 1.57 in 1989. Managing both work and childcare requires supports from multiple sources including companies, families and communities. Companies promoted the childcare leave system and utilization of that leave as the primary support system for balancing work and childcare. Preceeding studies also point out that effects are made by the childcare leave system on job continuity for women at the stage of child birth / child care. Nevertheless, the birthrate continues to drop and many women quit their job at the stage of childbirth / childcare. Companies are required to improve their diversified support systems for balancing work and childcare in addition to the childcare leave system under the measures against declining birthrate. To provide effective supports, it is important to organize supports that suplement the childcare leave system, by identifying elements of the childcare leave system which enabled women to continue their job and other elements which failed to enable them to do so.
