Governor Nam Kyung-pil: "Personnel Principles Will Be Set Based on Employees' Opinions"

Gyeonggi Province Governor Nam Kyung-pil stated his position that personnel principles will be established based on the contents of a personnel discussion session.

On the 7th, Governor Nam held a discussion session at the governor's office to develop measures for improving the personnel system, attended by 16 employee representatives, two union representatives including Gyeonggi Province Public Officials Union Chairman Ko Sang-beom, and personnel experts.

At the meeting, Governor Nam said, "A transparent and professional personnel system is needed so that public officials can work hard," adding, "I will set personnel principles based on employees' opinions and will make sure the principles are upheld during my term."

He then proceeded with the discussion together with the employees who attended.

On this day, the employees offered the opinion that opportunities for promotion should be granted through fair performance evaluations, saying, "We must change the climate where one can only be promoted by going to the lead department or lead team."

They also proposed, "A specialist system is in place to secure professional expertise, but there are almost no incentives," and "We hope a system will be established that expands specialist positions and leads to promotions."

In addition, there were opinions that employees should be assigned by combining the Northern Office and the Southern Office, as well as arguments that a personnel system that can increase promotion opportunities is needed.

Meanwhile, at a discussion session on campaign pledges and key policies held on the 6th, Governor Nam disclosed his email address to gather measures for improving the personnel system and asked employees to share their opinions.
