Sándor Bodó announced that the government will also extend the labor market advisory network to the central Hungarian region in order to provide reliable and up-to-date information. The state secretary responsible for employment policy of the Ministry of Innovation and Technology (ITM) said that job seekers and employees can now use the free services in all parts of the country.
The aim of the program is to enable jobseekers and employed persons to receive professional, up-to-date assistance for legal employment and law-abiding, law-conscious behavior. Those interested can receive answers and advice online or in person on labor law, employment law, social security and employment-related tax law issues.
Due to the total of approximately one and a half million employed people in Budapest and Pest county, it is particularly important to support legal employment. In addition to the five in Budapest, the new personal customer services are waiting for those seeking help at a location in Száchahalombatta . The online employment-promoting services provided by the program implemented by the OFA Országos Foglalkoztatási Közhasznú Nonprofit Kft. are accessible throughout the country.

Sándor Bodó added: "Hungarian people want to make a living from work, the government's priority is to build a work-based society and economy. Our joint efforts have been successful: since the regime change, domestic employment has grown to an unprecedentedly high level, with around 4.7 million people working in Hungary. The increase of the minimum wage to HUF 200,000 from January will also serve to further clean up the labor market".
