Gangnam-gu 1280+α Youth Employment Measures 추진

Two-Track Expansion of Corporate Employment Activation and Youth Public Jobs... Focus on Resolving the 'COVID-19 Employment Crisis'

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jeong Soon-gyun) will hire 30 job seekers by the end of April through 27 companies located in the metropolitan area recruited under the 'Non-face-to-face and Digital Youth Job Project.'

This project is a program that supports companies employing Seoul residents aged 18 to 39 with a monthly wage subsidy of 2 million KRW for up to 10 months.

Participants receive training from current developers and work as web and app developers at companies until the end of the year, performing tasks such as UI/UX design, web page and app server management, and maintenance.

This project, directly planned by the district, was previously selected in the 'Region-led Youth Job Project' announced by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.

It is part of employment incentive support projects, including the 'Small and Medium Enterprise Youth Internship,' which has the largest budget among autonomous districts (3 billion KRW) and aims to hire 250 people.

Direct hiring to provide public jobs is also being promoted.

The district selected two 'Youth Job Promoters' and two 'Social Economy Coordinators' and placed them in the Chamber of Commerce and the Social Economy Center. Youth jobs through the 'Youth Safe Job Project' will also be significantly created. The supplementary budget was increased by 2 billion KRW from the original budget (4.9 billion KRW) to expand public institution jobs (from 500 to 1,000 people).

Meanwhile, as part of the district's plan to revitalize youth employment in the first half of the year, the total number of jobs to be created this year is over 1,280.

Last year, the district employed 2,507 young people seeking jobs through Hope Jobs and public work programs.
