Hello, everyone! This is Narorin♪
In this Narorin Report or Narorepo, I will tell you about Kurumin Mark received by NARO.

The National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) has been certified as a "Child-care supportive institution" by the Minister of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW), and received the "Kurumin certification Mark".

NARO also received "Standard Conformity General Employer Certification Notice" from the Ibaraki Labor Bureau.



This is the "Kurumin certification Mark", a proof that the institute is certified for its effort towards the child-care support at a high level based on the Act on Advancement of Measures to Support Raising Next-Generation Children.
