[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Junhee) has selected an additional 100 participants following the selection of 180 participants last month for the local quarantine job project to prevent COVID-19.


This initiative aims to provide jobs to residents struggling due to the prolonged economic downturn caused by COVID-19, ensuring their livelihood stability while breaking the chain of local COVID-19 infections through thorough quarantine activities.


The 180 local quarantine job participants selected in March have been assigned to local elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as 21 community service centers in the district, carrying out COVID-19 quarantine activities.


The additional 100 quarantine support personnel will join the existing 180 participants to engage in various activities such as environmental improvement and quarantine support at seven local gymnasiums, Byeolbitnaerincheon Stream, and 21 community service centers, which are blind spots in quarantine efforts.


Additionally, since January, the district has selected a total of about 570 people through the Seoul Citizen Safety Job Project, Local Quarantine Job Project, and Local Community Job Project, creating public jobs to stabilize residents' lives amid the COVID-19 crisis.


It was also announced that in April, recruitment will begin for participants in the '2021 Hope Work Support Project' and the 'Second Half Seoul Citizen Safety Job (Public Work) Project' to respond to the ongoing economic downturn and unemployment caused by COVID-19.



Mayor Park Junhee of Gwanak-gu stated, “To prevent the spread of COVID-19 in the community, we will further strengthen local quarantine activities by deploying additional personnel to local gymnasiums, Byeolbitnaerincheon Stream, and community service centers, which are blind spots in quarantine.” He added, “We will continue to create public jobs for residents facing difficulties due to COVID-19 and do our best to revitalize the stagnant local economy.”
