Bucheon City to Operate On-site Job Counseling for the Middle-aged Every Wednesday

Bucheon City in Gyeonggi Province announced on January 8 that it will operate the "On-site Job Counseling for the Middle-aged" in cooperation with the Bucheon Workers' Welfare Center to support stable job placement and reemployment for the middle-aged population.

This on-site counseling program was established to address the lack of job information and limited accessibility experienced by people aged 50 to 64 who are either retired or going through a transitional period in their lives. Professional job counselors provide one-on-one customized consultations.

The counseling sessions are held every Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Bucheon Center for Middle-aged Retirement Preparation. Two job counselors offer advice tailored to each job seeker's situation and career background.

The counseling covers setting job search directions, providing employment information, resume and job search strategy consultations, and connecting job seekers to relevant employment support programs. The city plans to offer practical information on employment and entrepreneurship by linking various job resources, such as the National Employment Support System and the Bucheon Free Employment Center.

The city is promoting this initiative through collaboration between the Center for Middle-aged Retirement Preparation and related local organizations. It expects that the middle-aged will have easier access to job information and be able to explore opportunities that match their skills and needs.

A Bucheon City official stated, "For the middle-aged, a job is more than just a means of livelihood; it is an important factor in maintaining continuous social participation and vitality in life. We will continue to actively utilize community resources to steadily promote retirement preparation support policies that the middle-aged can truly benefit from."
