Seoul Recruits 6,490 'Friendly Jobs' to Help Vulnerable Classes

In the first half of next year, the Seoul Metropolitan Government said it will select 6,490 people to work in 715 "companied jobs" in five areas, including care, health, economy and social safety.

Seoul citizens who are 18 years of age or older and have work capabilities, total household income of 80% or less of median income, and total household wealth of 499 million won or less can apply to the community center in their address by the 6th of next month.

Participants in the accompanying job receive 60,000 won per day to help vulnerable groups such as cleaning elderly homes living alone for five days a week within six hours a day, checking rainwater racks, and protecting homeless people.
