A special job fair was held in Huangpu District of Guangzhou, exclusively for disabled and unemployed citizens, single mothers and recently released ex-convicts.

The fair's representatives said that people from these social groups have more difficulty finding suitable jobs. The district has more than 2,000 people from these groups.

A judicial official from the district said departments will monitor the work performance of people released from prison in their first three to six months of employment.

So far, a large number of these disadvantaged people have successfully signed long term job contracts, the Radio Guangdong Website reports.
