Heilongjiang's "15th Five-Year Plan" employment "combination punch": giving you a head start in finding a job

China News Service, Harbin, November 6 (Reporter Wang Nina) Employment is connected to the general economic trend and to millions of households. On November 6, at a series of press conferences with the theme of "Starting the 15th Five-Year Plan - Striving to Write a New Chapter in Chinese Modernization of Heilongjiang", Yu Zhanhuai, Deputy Director of the Department of Human Resources and Social Security of Heilongjiang Province, brought a set of heart-warming goals: During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, more than 1.3 million new jobs will be created in the province's cities and towns, and the surveyed urban unemployment rate will be controlled at around 5.7%.

Where does the confidence for this set of goals come from? Yu Zhanhuai gave five "combination punches": build an employment-friendly development model and tap into employment growth points such as the digital economy, ice and snow economy, and low-altitude economy; carry out large-scale vocational skills training, with subsidized training reaching more than 1.1 million people; promote the "Create Longjiang" action and use entrepreneurship to drive employment "snowball"; implement classified policies for college graduates, migrant workers, and groups with employment difficulties to ensure that zero-employment households are dynamically cleared; create a "15-minute employment service circle" to make public services within reach.

It is worth mentioning that Heilongjiang’s “new method” of promoting employment is very down-to-earth. The "Skills Shine Longjiang·Leading Empowerment" special action launched in September this year is specifically designed to help college students make up for the "soft skills" lesson: zero-threshold experience in micro-courses such as AI content creation, drone control, and live broadcast e-commerce operations; the cycle of 30 "short and fast" training projects is compressed to less than one month, with practical training accounting for no less than 70%; students can also "replace" course credits with professional skills certification scores while in school, truly realizing "employment with a certificate upon graduation."

The data is also warm: Since this year, Heilongjiang Province has issued 1.49 billion yuan in employment and entrepreneurship subsidies, reducing the burden on enterprises by 3.21 billion yuan; it has built 1,065 "doorstep" employment service stations, held 10,400 recruitment activities, and helped 347,600 people achieve their employment intentions. From January to October, 269,000 new jobs were created in cities and towns in Heilongjiang Province. Heilongjiang is taking care of the important matter of employment in a practical and warm manner.
