Abstract

The impact of COVID-19 on workers affected by layoffs poses new problems for the Tangerang city government. In addition, prospective workers who drop out of school or graduate from school also find it difficult to find work because of limited employment opportunities. This has an impact on economic growth and the level of welfare of the population which tends to decline. The need for handling labor becomes urgent in the city of Tangerang. Procurement of work training centers is one solution. The research conducted at the Tangerang City Job Training Center is related to the role of job training centers in preparing workers who are ready to work during a pandemic with a research focus on hard skills and soft skills with a composition of 75% practice, 25% theory. This study uses qualitative and quantitative research with a descriptive approach. The indicator of the success of the role of the job training center is the number of prospective workers who are ready to work with satisfactory competency values. In addition, to achieve a high percentage of success, an evaluation will be carried out for the training participants. The results of this study indicate an increase in the competence of the readiness of the workforce at the job training center. Furthermore, the results of this study will be a recommendation and reference for organizers to conduct job training for Tangerang city residents in the future.
