Suwon City Provides 300,000 KRW Transportation Allowance to Job-Seeking Youth

[Asia Economy (Suwon) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Suwon City, Gyeonggi Province, is recruiting 600 candidates for the '2020 Transportation Expense Support Project for Job-Seeking Youth' until the 15th of next month.

The Transportation Expense Support Project for Job-Seeking Youth is a program by Suwon City that provides transportation cards (Cheong Card) preloaded with transportation expenses to reduce the economic burden on job-seeking youth.

The eligible applicants are young people aged 19 to 34 (born between January 1, 1985, and December 31, 2001) residing in Suwon as of the announcement date (April 17), who are preparing for employment and are members of households with a median income of 120% or less (based on the March 2020 health insurance premium calculation).

Applications can be submitted through the Integrated Job Support Project Application System (https://apply.jobaba.net).

The city determines the support priority based on residence period and participation history in employment support projects (2018?2020).

If selected, applicants will receive a 'Cheong Card' (Youth Transportation Card). The Cheong Card is a public transportation-only card that can be used on buses and subways.

Support of 60,000 KRW per month will be provided for five months, totaling 300,000 KRW.

The list of supported youth will be announced on the 29th of next month. Selected individuals will be notified individually via text message.

The city plans to distribute the 'Cheong Card' at the 'Youth Wind Zone' (Paldal-gu, Haenggung-ro) from June 2 to 5.
