Gwangju Buk-gu Supports Online Mandatory Legal Education for Small and Medium Enterprises

Providing Educational Convenience and Contributing to a Healthy Work Environment for Small and Medium Enterprise Workers in Buk-gu Until This November

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yukbong] Buk-gu, Gwangju City, supports 'online legal mandatory training for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)' to alleviate cost burdens and minimize work gaps for local SMEs.

On the 28th, Buk-gu announced that it will provide free online access to five major legal mandatory training courses for employees of SMEs located in Buk-gu until November this year.

Legal mandatory training is education that must be conducted annually for workplaces above a certain size, and failure to comply results in fines.

The training is conducted through Edu A Company, a professional training institution designated by the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and consists of five courses: ▲ Sexual Harassment Prevention ▲ Personal Information Protection ▲ Awareness Improvement for Disabled Persons in the Workplace ▲ Retirement Pension ▲ Workplace Bullying Prevention.

Employees of SMEs interested in the training can apply via mobile or Edu A Company email.

Applications can be made by setting a period within one month per company, during which the training can be freely taken.

Director Moon said, "Many SMEs have not completed their own legal mandatory training so far," and added, "Since group training is difficult due to COVID-19, we will support online training courses free of charge to ease the difficulties of SMEs and help create a healthy working environment."

Meanwhile, Buk-gu operates various corporate support policies such as overseas standard certification fee support and trade academies to assist SMEs struggling due to COVID-19.
