Gyeonggi Province Wins Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Award at Korea Jobs Awards
On November 12, the Gyeonggi Provincial Government received the Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Award at the Korea Jobs Awards.
The Korea Jobs Awards are presented to local governments and public institutions that have implemented outstanding employment policies or made significant contributions to the creation of quality jobs. The awards are held in conjunction with the Ministry of the Interior and Safety's "2025 Regional Economy Innovation Expo."
This year, 81 local governments and public institutions participated in the expo. After a preliminary document review and on-site exhibition content assessment, which evaluated the creativity and impact of employment policies, as well as a comprehensive review, a total of 13 organizations (7 local governments and 6 public institutions) were ultimately selected.
This year, the Gyeonggi Provincial Government has promoted a variety of employment initiatives, including job matching and customized recruitment support services for young people, the operation of job opportunity centers for baby boomers, and generation-specific job programs such as the Eum Job Project for baby boomers. In addition, the province has implemented education and training programs based on future high-tech industries, such as the Gyeonggi Future Technology School and G-SPEC (a semiconductor workforce development project), as well as job placement programs linked to businesses for everyone from youth to middle-aged workers.
The province was highly praised for establishing a leading employment ecosystem for the Fourth Industrial Revolution by focusing on job transition training and talent development policies in emerging industries such as semiconductors, future mobility, and biotechnology.
