The Geochang-gun Disabled Workers' Workplace in Gyeongnam has been certified as a production facility for severely disabled products, producing paper boxes and shopping bags. It started with 5 disabled workers and currently employs about 30 people, achieving sales of over 2.3 billion KRW last year.


Additionally, last year, with 800 million KRW from the Ministry of Health and Welfare's function reinforcement project fund, box manufacturing equipment was upgraded to increase product variety, contributing to sales growth and the promotion of disabled employment.



Governor Gu said, “I hope that the Disabled Workers' Workplace, a vocational rehabilitation facility for the disabled, will provide stable jobs for disabled people and play a role in improving the quality of life for disabled residents in our region.”
