Ministry Of Manpower And BGN Explore Cooperation In Creating Jobs Through Free Nutrition Eating Programs

The Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker) will collaborate with the National Nutrition Agency (BGN) to create jobs through the Free Nutrition Food (MBG) program.

This was conveyed by the Minister of Manpower, Yassierli, after meeting with the Head of the National Nutrition Agency, Dadan Hindayana, in Jakarta, Friday, February 21.

Minister of Manpower Yassierli revealed that the two main issues discussed the meeting. First, the use of the MBG program to create job creation.

"We are mapping how each MBG service unit can contribute to adding new workers," said the Minister of Manpower in a statement to the media, Saturday, February 22.

Second, he continued, is how the MBG program can be used to collaborate with each other. The Ministry of Manpower with the standardization of the training it has, he said, can help workers who will later serve in service units managed by BGN.

The Minister of Manpower explained that the Work Training Center (BLK) owned by the Ministry of Manpower will be a training window for the implementation of the MBG program.

"This is an extraordinary collaboration. In the near future, the Ministry of Manpower's BLK-BLK will be attended by the MBG program service unit. That is where the ecosystem will be realized starting from training, practice, to participants ready to enter directly into the MBG program," he concluded.
