Some policies and measures to promote the employment and entrepreneurship of retired military personnel in Guangdong Province
In order to thoroughly implement the important exposition of the Supreme Leader General Secretary on the work of retired military personnel, establish and improve the employment and entrepreneurship policy system for retired military personnel, increase the support for employment and entrepreneurship, and promote the high-quality full employment and successful entrepreneurship of retired military personnel in our province (including self-employed retired soldiers, self-employed demobilized military cadres and demobilized cadres), the following policies and measures are formulated.
First, extensively carry out adaptive training
(a) to carry out adaptability training for all staff.All the retired soldiers who are accepted and resettled in our province and meet the requirements are trained in adaptability, which is completed in principle within one month after the retired soldiers report for duty. Adaptive training focuses on ideological and political education, education of laws, regulations and policies, employment and entrepreneurship guidance, psychological counseling, etc. The provincial finance gives subsidies according to 1000 yuan per person, and the insufficient part is solved by local finance, which can be charged from the unemployment insurance fund extracted from the vocational skills upgrading action.
(2) Promote the forward movement of adaptive training.We will carry out in-depth activities of "sending policies to barracks", carry out career guidance for military personnel before retirement, and strengthen economic and social development and employment situation introduction, policy consultation, psychological adjustment, career planning, etc.
Second, vigorously carry out skills training
(3) Strengthen the training of employment and entrepreneurship skills.Retired soldiers who are willing to train and meet the requirements can choose to receive a free (tuition-free, accommodation-free and skill appraisal-free) employment and entrepreneurship skills training after retirement, and enjoy the living allowance during the training. The training period is generally not less than 3 months. Finance at all levels shall be guaranteed, which can be paid from the unemployment insurance fund extracted from the action of improving vocational skills. Training institutions are selected from qualified training institutions and vocational colleges, and can also be trained in cooperation with enterprises. Ex-servicemen can enjoy the above-mentioned preferential policies for employment and entrepreneurship skills training, and can also apply to participate in other vocational skills upgrading action plans and enjoy corresponding training benefits. Those who have obtained relevant certificates through training shall apply for subsidies according to regulations and shall not apply for them repeatedly.
(four) to improve the effectiveness of employment and entrepreneurship skills training.Carry out "order", "orientation" and "fixed post" training, promote the integration of production and education, school-enterprise cooperation, and promote modern apprenticeship system and new enterprise apprenticeship system. Encourage enterprises to carry out post-service training for ex-servicemen, and vigorously carry out skills training to meet job needs and development needs. Adhere to the "who trains and recommends employment", compact the responsibility and improve the success rate of employment.
(five) to encourage participation in a variety of vocational skills training.In the key projects to improve vocational skills, such as "New Generation Industrial Workers Training", "Guangdong Technician", "Cantonese Cuisine Master", "Enterprise Apprenticeship Training", "Enterprise Workers’ Job Transfer Training" and "Rural Labor Force Precision Training", we will arrange a certain number of places to carry out training for retired military personnel, and vigorously support retired military personnel to participate in the training of workers’ dreams, rural entrepreneurial and innovative talents, youth employment and entrepreneurship training, unemployed personnel training, and entrepreneurship training in returning to the countryside.
Third, support retired military personnel to upgrade their academic qualifications
(six) support to participate in secondary and higher vocational education.Retired soldiers can participate in full-time secondary vocational education (including technical education) without trial within 2 years of retirement, and the provincial finance will give 2-year financial subsidies to retired military students in economically underdeveloped areas at 7000 yuan per student per year. Retired soldiers can pass the unified entrance examination in the whole province, or apply for higher vocational colleges (including technician colleges that have been included in higher vocational education according to the prescribed procedures) by single examination in schools. If they are admitted to higher vocational colleges within one year of retirement, register for admission and obtain full-time student status, the provincial finance will give 3-year financial subsidies to retired military students in economically underdeveloped areas at 7000 yuan per student per year. The above funds are used for tuition and miscellaneous fees, accommodation fees, internship fees, skill appraisal fees, living allowances, etc., and other areas are solved by local governments at the listed level.
(seven) support to participate in undergraduate and above education in colleges and universities.Retired military personnel take part in the general college entrance examination, adult college entrance examination and postgraduate examination. Those who meet the requirements enjoy extra care and are given priority under the same conditions. During the period of service, those who have won the second class merit or above and meet the requirements for entering the examination may apply for exemption from the initial examination for master’s degree. Retired soldiers with general higher vocational (junior college) education can enroll in adult colleges without taking the test. Higher vocational (junior college) students are enlisted for compulsory military service and retired. After completing their studies in higher vocational (junior college), they take the entrance examination for undergraduate students in colleges and universities, and implement separate plans and separate admission scores. Higher vocational (junior college) students who have won the third-class merit (including third-class merit) or above during their compulsory military service will be admitted to the enrollment institutions and majors of undergraduate students in ordinary colleges and universities without examination after completing their studies in higher vocational (junior college).
Retired for more than one year, admitted to higher vocational colleges, ordinary colleges with bachelor’s degree or above, registered for admission and obtained full-time student status.

Encourage the establishment of municipal education and training (training) demonstration bases. When verifying the total performance pay in vocational colleges, the unit that undertakes the training of employment and entrepreneurship skills of retired military personnel and secondary and higher vocational education can appropriately increase the proportion of the training workload of retired military personnel converted into the training workload of full-time students.

Support social forces to carry out education, training and evaluation of retired military personnel. Explore the establishment of an education and training alliance for retired military personnel, and establish a training teacher library and entrepreneurial guidance team.
V. Promoting multi-channel employment of retired military personnel
(eleven) appropriately relax the recruitment (employment) conditions.Organs, enterprises, institutions, and social organizations, when recruiting and employing staff or workers, appropriately relax the professional, age, and academic qualifications of retired military personnel. The military service experience is regarded as grassroots work experience, and the length of service is calculated as the length of service. Under the same conditions, priority is given to recruiting and employing retired military personnel.
(12) Increase the recruitment of civil servants.In the annual recruitment of civil servants, at least 400 indicators are arranged in the province, and positions are set up in coordination with university student village officials, "three supports and one support" and other service grassroots projects, and the recruitment is for retired university student soldiers (including those who have obtained academic qualifications after retirement). According to the national policy, a certain number of grass-roots civil servant positions are set up every year to recruit college graduates and retired soldiers who have served in the army for five years or more. When organizing the work in Selected Graduates, we should pay attention to selecting and transferring outstanding college students with service experience.

In the "Touyan" project of grass-roots party organizations, priority should be given to training and selecting village party secretary from party member, a retired soldier, and attention should be paid to training and selecting village cadres from returning veterans.
