Gwangju Seo-gu Selects ‘MVP Public Officials’ for Outstanding District Administration... Incentives Provided

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Shin Dong-ho] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Kim Yi-gang) announced on the 2nd that it will select 'MVP Public Officials' to revitalize the organization and create a productive workplace atmosphere by giving preferential treatment to public officials who have diligently carried out district administration issues and key projects.

This MVP Public Official program provides incentives to boost the morale of public officials who have contributed to district administration through creative and innovative work execution, allowing them to work with a sense of fulfillment.

Seo-gu plans to select individual MVPs six times annually, MVP teams once each in the first and second halves of the year, and the MVP of the year at the end of the year.

The selection will be made by receiving recommendations from each bureau and neighborhood, conducting merit and reputation investigations, and then making the final decision through a selection committee.

Those selected as MVP Public Officials will receive a reward of 500,000 KRW, and starting from 2024, incentives in the form of performance score bonuses will also be provided along with the reward.

A Seo-gu official stated, "We will select public officials who are not only diligent in their work but also serve as social role models," adding, "We expect that this morale-boosting measure will motivate proactive work execution and ultimately become a driving force for providing improved administrative services."

Meanwhile, Seo-gu plans to pilot the selection of the MVP Public Official of the Year next December and will begin full-scale operation from next year.
