Hwaseong City Presents First Hwaseong Innovation Awards

Hwaseong City announced on the 2nd that it will present the 'First Hwaseong Innovation Awards' to civil servants who have demonstrated creativity in their daily duties or have innovatively reduced budgets.

By the 9th, the city plans to receive submissions of cases from civil servants who have established work processes that can reduce budgets or achieve visible results while performing their assigned tasks.

The city will evaluate submitted cases based on four criteria: effort to improve work processes, effectiveness, difficulty level, and sustainability. The Premier Innovator award will receive a laptop, the Brilliant Innovator award will receive a Nintendo DSi, and the Active Innovator award will receive a bicycle.

A city official stated, "Since civil servants' work handling is directly connected to administrative services for citizens, we aim to transform the city organization into a working organization and a creative workplace through this innovation award," and added, "We plan to present the innovation awards twice annually, and we intend to publish outstanding cases in a booklet so that all employees can share them together."
