Ministry of Gender Equality and Family Supports Women's Career Interruption Prevention Project at 80 'Saeil Centers'

Participation from 80 out of 159 Sites Nationwide
Providing Career Development and Mentoring Services

The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family announced on the 11th that it will promote the 'Career Interruption Prevention Support Project' this year through 80 Women's New Work Centers (Saeil Centers) nationwide.

The Career Interruption Prevention Support Project aims to help women who face career interruptions due to childbirth and childcare to continue their economic activities. The project will be operated at 80 out of 159 Saeil Centers nationwide.

Individual women experiencing career interruptions will receive career development psychological, grievance, and labor consultations, mentoring services, and career interruption prevention advisory consultations (consulting). Companies will be supported with HR, management, and organizational culture improvement advisory consultations (consulting), education and training (workshops), and workplace environment improvement projects.

In particular, the Ministry plans to provide in-depth career interruption prevention support programs reflecting regional characteristics at Saeil Centers in Jongno, Seoul; Incheon Metropolitan; Chungbuk Metropolitan; and Jeonbuk Metropolitan areas.

Both individuals and companies can apply to participate in the project by visiting the nearest Saeil Center or through the Saeil Center website. The website also supports an online women's career diagnosis test, allowing those seeking job change or career development consultations to self-assess their careers.

Meanwhile, Saeil Centers provide integrated employment support services such as job counseling and vocational training for women with career interruptions. Last year, 160,000 women succeeded in finding employment through Saeil Centers.
