Providing Local Jobs for Employment-Vulnerable Groups and Unemployed Facing Economic Crisis Due to COVID-19... Conducting Regional Quarantine Activities in Elementary, Middle, and High Schools and Subway Stations

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Jun-hee) is recruiting participants for the 'COVID-19 Overcome Local Jobs' project to support residents who have suffered from job loss or business closure due to COVID-19.

The participation period is scheduled to run for two months from the end of October to the end of December, and a total of 180 people will be selected.

Eligibility is open to any Gwanak-gu resident aged 18 or older and under 65, with priority given to vulnerable employment groups, those who lost jobs due to COVID-19, and those who have temporarily closed or shut down businesses.

Working hours will be up to 8 hours per day, 5 days a week, with various employment benefits provided, including enrollment in the four major social insurances, paid holidays, and weekly/monthly allowances.

The application period is 7 days from October 15 to 21. Applicants can check the Gwanak-gu Office website (News → Recruitment Announcements), complete the related documents, and submit them via email (sungjin0922@ga.go.kr) or in person (4th floor, Main Building, Gwanak-gu Office, Job Venture Division).

For online applications, to assist elderly residents who are not familiar with computer use, nearby community service centers will provide convenient access to submit applications online.

Selected participants will be assigned to local elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as subway stations, to carry out local quarantine activities to prevent the spread of COVID-19, support administrative tasks, maintain the environment, and manage facilities. The district will review applicant information and announce the final selected candidates on October 27.

Mayor Park Jun-hee stated, “We will take the lead in revitalizing the local economy by providing jobs to residents who have suffered economic damage due to COVID-19, and we will do our best to create a Gwanak-gu without blind spots in quarantine by deploying personnel to high-risk and multi-use facilities within the district for COVID-19 daily quarantine.”
