Miryang City in South Gyeongsang Province is recruiting 30 participants for the “2026 Youth Job Incentive” program through February 27 to support early-career young people in settling stably in the region.
This program is designed to help young people who are new to the workforce achieve financial stability and to encourage long-term employment at companies located in the region, thereby promoting their settlement in the area.
Eligible applicants are young people aged between 18 and 39 whose resident registration address is in Miryang City and who have been newly hired as full-time workers or converted to full-time status at companies within the city (with at least three regular employees) on or after January 1, 2025.
Selected participants will receive 500,000 won each quarter, up to a maximum of 2 million won for one year. However, those who are currently enrolled in the “Tomorrow Filling Deduction” program or who have previously received the same type of incentive will be excluded.
Applications are open until February 27. For more details, applicants can check the “What’s New” section on the official Miryang City website or contact the Miryang City Population Policy Officer.
A city official said, “Through this program, we expect to prevent the outflow of the young population and to enhance employment stability for companies,” adding, “We will continue to do our best to create quality job environments so that young people can stay in Miryang and work happily.”
