Geumcheon-gu Selects 5 Outstanding Public Officials for Active Administration, Including Housing Maintenance Officer Kim Hana

Selected 5 Cases Including 'Approval Process for Union Changes through Rational and Proactive Legal Interpretation'

Geumcheon-gu (Mayor Yu Seong-hoon) announced on the 29th that it has selected five individuals who demonstrated creativity and proactive work performance as the ‘2023 Second Half Proactive Administration Outstanding Public Officials.’

The outstanding public officials are Kim Hana, Administrative Officer of the Housing Maintenance Division; Bae Myung-kwon, Administrative Officer of the Cleaning Administration Division; Ji Eun-young, Administrative Officer of the Medical Affairs Division; Ahn Hyung-joon, Administrative Officer of the Senior and Disabled Affairs Division; and Park Jong-bae, Administrative Officer of the Parks and Greenery Division.

Since 2021, Geumcheon-gu has been selecting outstanding cases of proactive administration annually and recognizing employees who have achieved results through such work as outstanding public officials to promote a culture of proactive work within the organization.

The district conducted evaluations by residents and staff, as well as a judging panel, on 20 outstanding cases recommended by each department. Using criteria such as resident satisfaction, the proactiveness, creativity, and expertise of the person in charge, the importance and difficulty of the task, and the potential for dissemination, the evaluations were weighted 20% for resident and staff assessments and 80% for the judging panel, selecting 10 cases. Subsequently, the Proactive Administration Committee chose the final five outstanding cases.

The Grand Prize was awarded to Kim Hana, Administrative Officer of the Housing Maintenance Division (for rational and proactive legal interpretation leading to approval of cooperative association changes).

Officer Kim actively reviewed residents’ complaints requesting the expansion of the Small-scale Housing Maintenance Management Area (Moatown) and processed the approval for changes in cooperative association establishment. Through rational legal interpretation and swift approval processing, the housing maintenance project period was shortened, resulting in cost savings.

The Excellence Award went to Bae Myung-kwon, Administrative Officer of the Cleaning Administration Division (for establishing a real-time CCTV monitoring system for illegal dumping), and Ji Eun-young, Administrative Officer of the Medical Affairs Division (for expanding medical access for children and adolescents). The Encouragement Award was given to Ahn Hyung-joon, Administrative Officer of the Senior and Disabled Affairs Division (for creating a senior leisure complex facility for a happy silver generation), and Park Jong-bae, Administrative Officer of the Parks and Greenery Division (for free use of private land through public-private-academic cooperation).

The selected outstanding proactive public officials will receive rewards including prize money, performance bonuses, welfare points, and preferential benefits such as reward leave according to the preferential grade criteria.

Mayor Yu Seong-hoon stated, “We will foster a ‘proactive administration culture’ where public officials can work autonomously and responsibly for residents without being constrained by regulations or customs.”
