Siheung City has ranked first for six consecutive years in Gyeonggi Province's evaluation of women's employment projects. On June 4, the city announced that it had secured the top overall position in the "2024 Women's New Employment Center Evaluation" conducted by Gyeonggi Province.

This evaluation comprehensively analyzed ten indicators across 27 Women's New Employment Centers in Gyeonggi Province, including job placement and entrepreneurship performance, achievement rate of regular employment placement goals, achievement rate of job seeker discovery goals, the New Employment Women's Internship Program, post-management support projects, and province-specific specialized projects.
