KSD Donates 80 Million KRW to Create Community Self-Support Work Jobs

[Asia Economy Reporter Minji Lee] The Korea Securities Depository announced on the 24th that it has signed a business agreement with the Busan branch of the Korea Regional Self-Sufficiency Center Association to create jobs for local residents participating in self-sufficiency and to practice ESG management.

The agreement includes the Korea Securities Depository sponsoring 80 million KRW in donations, and the Busan branch of the Korea Regional Self-Sufficiency Center Association managing the self-sufficiency labor job projects. The self-sufficiency project refers to expanding job opportunities and creating a working environment for low-income groups such as basic livelihood security recipients and near-poverty individuals to live independently.

As part of this agreement, the ‘Self-Sufficiency Participant Total Clean Master Support Project’ will be promoted to support the creation of about 120 self-sufficiency labor jobs. The Self-Sufficiency Participant Total Clean Master Support Project involves self-sufficiency participants belonging to 12 self-sufficiency centers in the Busan area visiting approximately 210 households of children in vulnerable housing from June to November to provide comprehensive cleaning services such as cleaning, laundry, and disinfection.

Choi Jeong-cheol, head of the Korea Securities Depository, said, “We hope that the Korea Securities Depository can be of some help to encourage the work motivation of self-sufficiency participants who are able to work, and to enable children in vulnerable housing to live in a cleaner environment.”
