The Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security is set to launch a month-long program starting mid-December aimed at promoting youth employment.

The program targets college students graduating in 2026, recent graduates who have not yet secured employment, and youths participating in the State-level "Sanzhi Yifu" program, which involves two to three years of service in grassroots positions in education, agriculture, medical care, and rural revitalization.

High-quality and efficient job services will be provided to these youths throughout the month, according to a ministry release on Thursday.

Local human resources bureaus, human resources service agencies, and talent markets are encouraged to develop or introduce suitable job opportunities for young people. They will organize both online and on-site job fairs and ensure well-organized human resources services are available on campuses during this period, it said.

Additionally, the ministry will enhance education on recognizing job-seeking traps to increase young people's risk prevention awareness and ensure that job fairs are conducted in an orderly manner.
