Gwangju Chamber of Commerce, Recruiting Companies for NCS Corporate Utilization Consulting Participation

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Seon-gang] The Gwangju Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Chairman Jeong Chang-seon) announced on the 7th that it is recruiting participating companies for the ‘2020 NCS Corporate Utilization Consulting Project (hereinafter NCS Consulting)’ to support companies wishing to introduce NCS (National Competency Standards).

NCS is a systematization by the government of the knowledge, skills, attitudes, and other contents required for job performance in industrial sites. When companies introduce NCS, it enables effective talent recruitment centered on job competencies and strengthening of incumbent employees’ capabilities through systematic education and training. It is also expected to establish a proper wage payment system based on job-centered personnel placement and workers’ job competencies.

NCS Consulting, conducted for small and medium-sized enterprises and mid-sized companies with 30 or more regular employees, involves two external experts visiting the site to analyze the company’s current status and job roles together with company officials. Based on this, processes such as building career development paths for workers, developing various evaluation tools and checklists for job-centered blind recruitment, personnel placement, and promotion are sequentially carried out.

Since 2015, Gwangju Chamber of Commerce and Industry has derived various NCS introduction and utilization results, including blind recruitment, through NCS consulting for a total of 80 companies over five years. This year, it plans to promote consulting by recruiting 20 companies on a first-come, first-served basis and will fully support the consulting costs.

Companies wishing to participate can submit an application form through the notice section on the Gwangju Chamber of Commerce and Industry website.

Chae Hwa-seok, Executive Director of the Gwangju Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said, “The introduction of NCS is expected to be an opportunity to strengthen workers’ capabilities and improve the overall personnel management system,” adding, “We will strive to enable more companies to introduce and utilize NCS through active promotion and professional consulting.”
