Gwanak-gu Attracts Attention for Selecting Seoul's Largest Scale Hope Jobs for Two Consecutive Years

Secured the Largest Seoul City National Budget of 16.2 Billion Won Over 2 Years, Creating a Total of 3,795 Jobs

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Gwanak-gu has attracted attention by securing the largest national government budget (16.2 billion KRW) among the 25 autonomous districts of Seoul over the past two years through the Hope Job and Hope Work support projects, creating a total of 3,795 jobs.

Last year, the district secured the largest national government budget in Seoul of 8.6 billion KRW in the government's 3rd supplementary budget (Hope Job), providing public jobs to a total of 1,713 residents.

This amount is 2.3 billion KRW more than the average national government budget of 6.3 billion KRW among the 25 autonomous districts of Seoul.

This year as well, the district plans to select a total of 2,082 people by securing 2.9 billion KRW in the government's 1st supplementary budget (Hope Work) and 4.7 billion KRW in the 2nd supplementary budget (Hope Job), the largest amounts in Seoul.

This is also 5.2 billion KRW more than the average national government budget of 2.4 billion KRW per autonomous district.

Through continuous securing of public job budgets like this, the district is making every effort to create jobs to help recover the residents' livelihoods and economy, which have been difficult due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

The Hope Work (Hope Job) project targets Gwanak-gu residents aged 18 or older who are capable of working, selecting participants through a comprehensive review of assets, income, and participation history, and carrying out various activities such as disinfection and environmental improvement of multi-use facilities.
