[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hong Jeonghwan] Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education has postponed the schedule for the 2020 1st Education Public Service Recruitment Examination.

The recruitment exam, originally scheduled for the 19th, has been postponed to January 16th next year to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Examinees who are under self-quarantine are not allowed to take the exam at the test site according to the Infectious Disease Control and Prevention Act and related laws. Those wishing to take the exam must apply in advance and, after consultation with health authorities and if there are no safety issues, may take the exam at a separate location. Confirmed cases are not allowed to take the exam.

All examinees must actively cooperate with safety measures conducted on the exam day, including wearing masks (KF94), hand sanitization, temperature checks, ventilation of the exam room, and installation of desk partitions in the exam room. Examinees must wear their own masks at all times inside the exam venue.

Since heating will not be provided on the exam day and windows will be kept open for ventilation, examinees should dress warmly.

Examinees showing suspicious symptoms such as coughing or fever may take the exam in a separate room after a medical interview or may be restricted from taking the exam. Due to COVID-19 prevention measures, parking inside the school is not allowed.

An official from the Office of Education said, “To block the spread of COVID-19 in the community, entry of outsiders to the exam site will be completely restricted on the exam day,” and added, “We will ensure a safe exam by complying with quarantine rules for COVID-19 prevention.”
