What more public welfare posts have Shaanxi Province set up to support employment?

In order to support employment, Shaanxi Province has set up more public welfare posts such as improving living environment, managing facilities and preventing and controlling epidemic situation. Priority will be given to poor laborers who are temporarily unable to go out to work due to the epidemic, and they will be employed locally and given subsidies.

In order to overcome the impact of the epidemic and fully complete the task of tackling poverty as scheduled, the Provincial Leading Group for Combating Poverty issued "Eight Measures for Shaanxi Province to Actively Respond to the Impact of COVID-19 Epidemic and Decisively Fight Poverty".

Do a good job in the rescue of poor patients. Implement treatment measures for diagnosed and suspected poor patients, do a good job of psychological counseling, and effectively protect their basic family life. For families with basic living difficulties caused by the epidemic, temporary assistance will be given in case of emergency.

Extended data:

Actively promote the employment of the poor. It is necessary to give full play to the role of local community factories and give priority to the local employment of poor laborers. Make full use of the mechanism of labor cooperation between Jiangsu and Shaanxi to organize poor laborers to go out to work in an orderly manner. If it is difficult for migrant workers to rework themselves, they will be merged nearby and distributed uniformly; If you go out to work or return to work on your own, the human and social departments will implement transportation subsidies.

Support poor enterprises to start work and return to work. For poor market players who cannot pay social insurance premiums in full due to the epidemic, they can postpone the payment of old-age insurance, unemployment insurance and work-related injury insurance premiums for no more than 6 months.

Loans that have been used or are in the epidemic period will be subsidized according to the scale of poverty alleviation and the benchmark interest rate standard, and the discount period will not exceed 1 year. Those who start to return to work during the epidemic prevention and control period will be given a one-time production subsidy according to the number of poor households employed.

It is effective to speed up the implementation of poverty alleviation projects. For projects that are conducive to the resumption of production and epidemic prevention and control as soon as possible, priority should be given to the use of special financial poverty alleviation funds and comprehensive agricultural funds. It is necessary to simplify procedures and start construction as soon as possible.

Increase incentives for poor households to develop "short, flat and fast" projects such as family farming. Centralized organization of goods supply by county, overall planning and unified procurement, decentralized distribution by village, and effectively solve the shortage of fertilizer and seedlings caused by epidemic situation in poverty-stricken areas.
