Seoul City to Expand 'Physical Fitness Certification System' for Hiring 30 Environmental Maintenance Workers Next Year
Application for Environmental Maintenance Worker Recruitment for Three Days from 1st to 3rd
Environmental Maintenance Worker Recruitment 'National Physical Fitness Certification System' Pilot Introduction and Expansion Implementation
[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 18th that it will accept applications for 30 environmental maintenance workers who manage facilities and green spaces in each park from November 1 to 3, for three days.
In this ‘Environmental Maintenance Worker Open Recruitment Exam,’ applicants do not need to take a separate physical fitness test; instead, they can obtain a certificate in advance from a nearby physical fitness certification center and submit the certificate during the application period.
There are seven physical fitness certification centers operating in Seoul, where exercise instructors with professional qualifications measure individual fitness levels such as cardiopulmonary endurance, muscular strength, flexibility, and agility, and issue certificates. Job seekers can receive the necessary documents for recruitment and also benefit from systematic health management through their fitness diagnosis.
Any citizen wishing to apply for the environmental maintenance worker open recruitment can visit a nearby center at their convenience to receive a free physical fitness assessment. If their condition is not good on the day or if they want to improve their grade, they can have another chance to retake the test. Seoul City will accept applications in early November, conduct practical and interview tests, notify the final successful candidates on January 12 next year, and assign them to each site.
