Seodaemun-gu Introduces 'Exemption Protection Officer' System to Protect Proactive Administrative Officials

However, there must be no intentional or gross negligence

Seodaemun-gu (Mayor Lee Seongheon) announced on the 4th that it has recently introduced the 'Exemption Protection Officer' system to protect proactive administrative officials.

Accordingly, if a public official suffers disadvantages from various audits as a result of sincerely and proactively performing duties for the public interest, their rights will be protected and they will be provided with consultation. However, there must be no intentional or gross negligence.

The district designated the Audit Officer as the Exemption Protection Officer.

The Exemption Protection Officer performs tasks such as ▲supporting the preparation of exemption review applications by public officials ▲protecting the rights of officials promoting proactive administration ▲and other rights and exemption support.

Additionally, through a pre-consultation system, opinions on decision-making and processing directions are provided, and incentives are given to officials who promote proactive administration to spread a culture of proactive administration within the public service community.

Furthermore, a related channel is operated year-round so that residents can submit opinions related to proactive administration at any time.

Lee Seongheon, Mayor of Seodaemun-gu, said, “We will do our best to reduce the burden on public officials regarding proactive administration through various supports and to establish a culture of proactive administration by strengthening incentives.”
