Pohang City, Sharing and Coexistence... United for Stronger Welfare!

Professional Development Training and Work Study for Social Welfare Officers

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Dongguk Lee] On the 27th and 30th, Pohang City conducted the ‘2023 Major Amendments in Social Welfare Projects Training and Work Seminar’ for about 90 social welfare public officials to enhance their professionalism and capabilities.

Pohang City is conducting the '2023 Social Welfare Project Major Amendment Briefing and Work Workshop.'

This work seminar was promoted to share this year’s major amendments to improve work processing skills, and to provide better social welfare services by efficiently responding to the rapidly increasing welfare demand through sharing work information and mutual communication among employees.

As this event was held for the first time in four years due to COVID-19, it provided an opportunity for employees to share useful information through case sharing and communication.

In particular, Kim Hyeongcheol, Chairman of the Welfare and Environment Committee of the Pohang City Council, and Choi Haegon, Vice Chairman, attended to convey opinions on welfare needs requested by residents at the eup, myeon, and dong field sites, and to listen to the difficulties faced by social welfare public officials, encouraging the staff during this meaningful time.

Choi Myeonghwan, Director of the Welfare Bureau, said, “Through this work seminar, we hope that employees will accurately understand their duties to ensure no inconvenience in providing resident services, and especially work hard to discover welfare blind spots during the winter season.”
