[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Go Dallyoung] The Jinangun Public Workers' Union (Branch Chief Yoo Seungjo) launched a labor assistance effort on the 14th, with about 15 union members participating, to help farms facing labor shortages due to COVID-19 as the full-scale farming season begins.


On this day, union members visited the elderly farmers' households in Neolti Village, Deokcheon-ri, Maryeong-myeon, and assisted with setting up pepper stakes in the pepper fields.



Branch Chief Yoo Seungjo said, "I felt a sense of fulfillment working hard with union members to help farms urgently lacking labor," and added, "We will continue to pay attention to farms with labor shortages and be a public workers' union that works together with the residents."
