Yeonggwang-gun Recruiting Companies to Participate in 'Youth Job Incentive Program'

[Yeonggwang=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Jeonseong] Yeonggwang-gun, Jeollanam-do (Governor Kim Junsung) announced on the 26th that it is recruiting companies to participate in the ‘Yeonggwang-type Youth Job Incentive Support Project’ until the 12th of next month to create stable youth jobs.

This project supports 100 local youths for three years to create conditions where young people living in the county can settle in Yeonggwang without leaving their hometown by alleviating the wage gap between large corporations and small and medium-sized enterprises through financial support when youths residing in the county are employed by local companies.

The eligible participants are small and medium-sized enterprises located in the county with three or more regular employees, and support can be provided for up to 10 people per company within 30% of the number of insured employees under employment insurance.

However, youths whose unemployment period is less than 10 months from the final loss of employment insurance qualification and youths re-employed within one year at the same workplace cannot apply.

Selected small and medium-sized enterprises that have employed youths aged 18 to 45 who have had an address in the county for more than one year as of the hiring date as regular employees this year will receive support of 18 million KRW for the youth and 3.6 million KRW for the company over three years.

Companies wishing to participate can apply by visiting the Job Support Center in person or by email with the application form, business workforce recruitment plan, small and medium enterprise confirmation certificate, business registration certificate, and a list of subscribers to the four major social insurance workplaces.

Detailed information can be found through the Ilgu Job Policy Office or the county website announcement.
