Guri seeks 2 female members for citizen grievance committee

Guri is accepting applications for two female members to join its Citizen Grievance Committee, aiming to protect residents' rights and handle complaints in a fair and professional manner.

The recruitment drive is intended to address a gender imbalance on the existing committee and strengthen its expertise in processing grievances. Those selected will serve as non-standing appointed members for a four-year term.

Applicants must submit the required documents to the Guri Audit Office in person or by registered mail between Oct. 19 and Oct. 23.

Eligible candidates must meet at least one of the following qualifications: associate professor or above at a university or research institution; legal professional such as a judge, prosecutor or attorney; retired civil servant of Grade 4 or higher; holder of a professional license in architecture, taxation, accounting, technology or patent affairs; or a nominee from a civic organization.

Guri plans to conduct interviews with applicants before finalizing appointments through a candidate recommendation by a selection committee and approval by the Guri City Council.

Full details on eligibility requirements and required documents are available in the recruitment notice posted on the Guri city website.

"The Citizen Grievance Committee plays a vital role in protecting residents' rights by investigating and handling complaints from an objective and professional standpoint, and by improving unreasonable systems," Guri Mayor Shin Dong-hwa said. "We hope capable individuals who are willing to listen to residents' voices and contribute to fair grievance resolution will take an interest and apply."
