To ease the unemployment situation due to the epidemic and the anti‑epidemic measures, the Government has earmarked total funding of $13.2 billion under the AEF to create time‑limited jobs in the public and private sectors. As at end‑2021, some 60 000 jobs were created under the two rounds of the Job Creation Scheme, of which about 45 000 jobs were filled. We have earmarked an additional funding of $6.6 billion in the latest round of AEF injection for the creation of another 30 000 time‑limited jobs.
