JAKARTA (Antara) – Human Resources Minister Aida Faucia has revealed that up to 56,566 jobs are vacant at the 2023 National Employment Fair organized by her ministry.

„For the 2023 National Employment Fair, we will offer 56,566 job vacancies from 135 companies, 10 of which are opening job vacancies for people with disabilities,” he said in Jakarta on Friday.

„About 15 thousand employees thronged last year’s job fair. This year, I hope this event will be effective in connecting employers and job seekers. There will be about 56 thousand job vacancies for job seekers,” he added.

According to the minister, the job fair is one of the activities organized by his ministry during the 2023 National Apprenticeship and Job Fair.

Apart from employment fairs, the Ministry conducts many activities such as vocational training and product fairs, seminars, certifications, employment services, skill competitions, vocational training ecosystem „meetups” and entertainment.

The National Apprenticeship Festival and Employment Fair will be held from 27-29 October 2023 at the Jakarta International Expo in Central Jakarta.
