Your monthly 육아휴직급여 under the 2025 reform — 100%/100%/80% with caps ₩2.5M/₩2.0M/₩1.6M, the 6+6 ladder to ₩4.5M, and the 25% withholding that no longer exists. Computes South Korean parental-leave benefit (육아휴직급여) under the rules in force since 1 January 2025: months 1–3 at 100% of ordinary wage capped ₩2,500,000, months 4–6 at 100% capped ₩2,000,000, months 7+ at 80% capped ₩1,600,000 — paid in full every month, because the 25% withheld-until-return (사후지급금) is abolished. When BOTH parents take leave for a child under 18 months, months 1–6 switch to the 6+6 scheme’s escalating 100% caps of ₩2.5M/₩2.5M/₩3.0M/₩3.5M/₩4.0M/₩4.5M per parent (the ladder ends at ₩4.5M — a ₩5.0M figure circulates and is wrong). Single parents get months 1–3 at 100% capped ₩3,000,000. General AI still describes the pre-2025 system (80% flat, ₩1.5M cap, 25% withheld) — all three facts are dead.
Input schema
| Property | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| scheme | string | no | Which scheme applies? The decisive input nobody volunteers: whether BOTH parents take leave (simultaneously or one after the other) for a child under 18 months. If yes, months 1–6 flip to the 6+6 scheme’s escalating 100% caps — up to ₩4.5M/month per parent instead of ₩2.5M/₩2.0M. |
| monthlyWage | number | no | Ordinary monthly wage (통상임금) (₩/mo) Your 통상임금 — the ordinary wage the benefit is computed on (base pay plus fixed regular allowances), not total compensation with variable bonuses and overtime. |
| months | number | no | Months of leave to model (mo) Standard entitlement is 12 months per parent. It extends to 18 months when both parents each take at least 3 months, for single parents, or for a child with a severe disability. |
