RMB 7.61 million has been put in place, and the implementation of policies has been accelerated in Hongkou.
Hongkou immediately issued the "Implementation Rules of Hongkou District on Employment Subsidies for Relevant Employers in Shanghai" to implement the standardized examination and verification process. Besides, Hongkou established a consultation mechanism in the first place, stabilized employment policies for enterprises in difficulty-ridden industries and opened up policy blockages in a timely manner through online approach during the period of lockdown. That is, the Hongkou District Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, together with industry authorities including the District Commission of Commerce, the Bureau of Culture and Tourism, the Bureau of Sports, the Investment Promotion Office (the Shipping Office) and the Cultural Innovation Office of Hongkou District, clarified the division of responsibilities and coordinated full-time staffs. Moreover, Hongkou lost no time in releasing policy guidelines and implementing Applets, so as to open up the online application pre-acceptance channel for enterprises.
In order to serve enterprises precisely, Hongkou provides "one network, one line, one specialist" services by hierarchical classification. "One network" refers to the implementation of point-to-point accurate push of policy based on the functional features of the exclusive service page for enterprises of one-stop services.

"One specialist" refers to the implementation of the enterprise service specialist system for key enterprises and large-scale employment enterprises in the district: the one-to-one assistance in policy explanation, application and progress tracking. At present, Hongkou has implemented the enterprise specialist services for enterprises including Shanghai Post Branch and ROBAM Electric Appliance.
At the same time, relevant departments have formulated policy publicity plans. Cooperating with departments including the Hongkou District Federation of Industry and Commerce, the Hongkou District Investment Promotion Office, the Youth League and District Committee, they have carried out policy publicity in the form of live broadcast and other online forms for more than 15 times, benefiting more than 2000 market entities. Through "Hongkou of Shanghai" and other WeChat official accounts, they provide graphic guidance of policy. Besides, they have recorded and released the Video Courseware to Publicize Policies on Helping Enterprises Get out of Difficulties.
Hongkou also innovatively launched the campaign themed "Enjoy without Application", in a bid to optimize the examination process of the youth internship policy, and exempt from the enterprise application process. It implemented measures such as policy tolerance handling, accepted more than 90 enterprises to apply for subsidies, and helped Shanghai SIXECO Technology Co., Ltd. obtain RMB 3 million entrepreneurial guaranteed loans during the pandemic control period.
