More jobs, labor protections offered for disabled people
Action plan issued to boost employment, calls for assistance and skills training
China has pledged to ensure that the job market provides fuller and higher-quality employment for people with disabilities, with a focus on protecting their labor rights and assisting college graduates and those in rural areas.
Senior officials say that securing jobs is vital for helping people improve their livelihoods, realize their personal value and share in the benefits of the country's modernization.
The State Council, China's Cabinet, unveiled a new three-year action plan last month to promote employment for people with disabilities. The plan encourages governments at all levels, the human resources market and society as a whole to expand employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for the disabled while protecting their labor rights from 2025 to 2027.
