Since 2012, Gyeonggi Province has been conducting a comprehensive evaluation of contributions to enhancing provincial government integrity, anti-corruption and integrity efforts, and the development of integrity policies. Following a review by the judging committee, the province recognizes and awards institutions and organizations within the province that have contributed to preventing corruption and improving integrity.


Pocheon City, which has been selected as an excellent institution for overall integrity for two consecutive years, was honored with its first award at the 14th Gyeonggi Province Integrity Awards in 2025.


The city was highly evaluated for its systematic response throughout the entire cycle of subsidy management, including prevention, execution, inspection, and feedback. Additional efforts such as operating an audit case search system, conducting regular inspections of audit disposition implementation, and providing audit case education for public officials and subsidy project operators also received high marks.



Mayor Baek Younghyun stated, "Being selected as an excellent institution for overall integrity for two consecutive years and now receiving our first award at the Gyeonggi Province Integrity Awards is the result of all employees consistently showing interest in and working together for integrity activities." He added, "We will continue to build a more trustworthy Pocheon City for our citizens through fair and transparent work practices."
