"Daejeon City’s Comprehensive Support for Youth Jobs to Prevent Youth Population Outflow"

Daejeon City announced on the 26th that it will launch the 'Daejeon Settlement-Type Youth Job Comprehensive Project' from next year to prevent the outflow of the local youth population.

The project aims to move away from previous youth job policies focused solely on job creation and instead focuses on enabling young people to settle in the region through employment.

To this end, Daejeon City has set three main goals: ▲ nurturing customized practical talents linked to the growth of core strategic industries ▲ improving local companies' awareness and providing youth-preferred jobs (resolving employment mismatches) ▲ supporting job creation, retention, and encouraging long-term employment.

In particular, a comprehensive support platform will be established to provide tailored support in four strategic areas?▲ improving corporate awareness ▲ supporting youth growth ▲ supporting youth recruitment ▲ supporting youth settlement?over three years from next year until 2026.

Lee Jang-woo, Mayor of Daejeon, said, "The ultimate goal of the project is to break the vicious cycle of employment where local youth leave for metropolitan areas in search of jobs, while local companies suffer from labor shortages," adding, "We will strive to help young people find jobs and settle in the region through this project."
