On the 21st, the Rail Network Authority announced that it signed a business agreement with the Small and Medium Business Corporation to support the "Core Talent Performance Reward Fund for Small and Medium Enterprises (Youth Employee Tomorrow Filling Deduction)."
The fund encourages long-term employment of young workers in small and medium-sized enterprises by having employers, employees, and the government jointly accumulate contributions over five years, which are paid out as performance rewards upon maturity.
Over five years, employees contribute 7.2 million KRW (120,000 KRW per month), companies contribute 12 million KRW (200,000 KRW per month), and the government contributes 10.8 million KRW (paid in seven installments over three years). Upon maturity, the accumulated fund is paid to the employee.
The Rail Network Authority plans to select 12 young core talents who have worked for more than six months at small and medium railway partner companies and support 100,000 KRW per month of the 200,000 KRW monthly contribution borne by the companies for the next five years.
