Hwasun County Office

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Young-gyun] Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Gu Chung-gon) announced on the 29th that it received a special award in the Job Target Disclosure System category at the 2020 National Local Government Job Awards ceremony held at the Government Sejong Convention Center on the 29th.

The National Local Government Job Awards have been selecting outstanding institutions among 243 local governments nationwide since 2012 to promote local governments' efforts and achievements in job creation and to raise social interest.

The award-winning institutions are selected through a comprehensive evaluation of quantitative job policy performance, establishment and cooperation of regional employment governance, and the local government head's commitment to job policies.

The Job Target Disclosure System, for which the county received the special award, is a system where the head of a local government publicly announces the job targets and measures to be pursued during their term on an annual basis to residents, and the Ministry of Employment and Labor evaluates the performance.

Hwasun-gun received uniformly high scores in areas such as appropriateness of business plans, local government head's commitment, effectiveness of job policies, and representative projects, winning the special award and securing 80 million won in prize money.

Gu Chung-gon, Governor of Hwasun-gun, said, "We will continue to focus administrative power on job creation suited to the characteristics of Hwasun-gun and do our best to create a happy Hwasun where jobs and growth form a virtuous cycle."
