Residential welfare worker outlook
According to Article 24 of the Framework Act on Housing, 1. The state and local governments must strive to train housing welfare professionals. 2. The state and local governments may support education to nurture housing welfare professionals. 3. The State, local governments, and public institutions may preferentially recruit and place housing welfare professionals in order to efficiently perform housing welfare tasks prescribed by Presidential Decree.
As the social structure changes in an aging society, the need for residential welfare workers will increase. In addition, as the permanent rental housing, national rental housing, and happy housing are integrated into one, the conditions for housing are eased and the number of housing workers is expected to increase.
