The joint evaluation of major Si-Gun work is a system in which South Gyeongsang Province comprehensively assesses the performance of key national and provincial policies across 18 cities and counties in the province every year.

In the 2025 evaluation (based on 2024 performance), Yangsan City was selected as an outstanding institution, ranking first in the quantitative assessment and third in the qualitative assessment, thereby securing a financial incentive of 210 million won.

The report meeting focused on achieving outstanding institution status for the second consecutive year. Seventeen department heads responsible for underperforming quantitative indicators as of the end of July, as well as for indicators not achieved in the previous year, reported on the status, progress, challenges, and improvement plans for each indicator.

Additionally, the meeting concentrated on developing effective countermeasures for underperforming quantitative indicators and previously unachieved indicators through root cause analysis. Efforts were also directed at establishing strategies to exceed targets for weighted indicators, which receive additional weight in the calculation of quantitative assessment achievement rates.

Going forward, the city plans to review performance monthly, hold ad hoc meetings to address underperforming indicators, and convene meetings among relevant departments as needed. In addition, Yangsan City will enhance performance by providing incentives such as reward payments based on evaluation results and commendations for outstanding public officials.

Deputy Mayor Kim Shinho stated, "The joint evaluation is the most credible assessment of the city's administrative capacity," and urged, "I hope that the department heads in charge of each indicator will take responsibility and do their utmost to ensure that all targets are achieved, so that we can continue to see good results."
