When it began to be revealed that the job center had stolen personal information and inflated employment performance, the government regarded it as a very serious matter and expanded the investigation. However, I have been resting for over two years about the results, and I only reluctantly disclosed it after losing the information disclosure lawsuit.



Next is reporter Kim Jung-woo.



<Reporter> This



is a report prepared by the Ministry of Employment and Labor in April 2019.



He explained the background of the investigation, saying that the application for job search for the deceased and the processing of employment are "very serious issues that require a preemptive response."



On the 12th of the same month, it was reported to the then Minister Lee Jae-gap on the 24th through the Vice Minister.



However, the results of the investigation were kept secret from the outside.



The results of a sample survey of 32 counselors were announced to the public as a press release, but were not disclosed when the expanded investigation revealed a much more serious situation.



Only some information was disclosed after losing the information disclosure claim filed by some counselors who failed to comply with the disciplinary action.



[A's / caller: because coming hidden about the results of testing the people of the country the vast majority, we have to cover up the responsibility for the work and the people they are responsible for -



hire section "largely administrative capacity falls morale of counselors We did not disclose it to the outside because we were concerned about it.”



The information entered by the counselors may have had an impact on the government's official statistics as it is also used as basic data for employment statistics.



[Mr./Informant A: Employment statistics have been created through false employment records, and the government has been investing the job budget based on those statistics.] In



fact, the case of job inflation revealed this time focused only on the registration of the dead and other Investigations into false input were not even conducted.



The Ministry of Employment and Labor only responded that there would be little inflated performance after strengthening counselor training.
