According to Yonhap News,

Chuncheon city, Gangwon province said it will introduce robotic process automation (RPA) to better deal with administrative tasks.

According to the city on July 24, the local government recently finalized the development of RPA that will be applied to a range of tasks, such as reimbursement of travel expenses, overtime pay for hours worked, and road occupy permission.

Now it moves to the trial phase, providing members of the authorities training programs on RPA.

With RPA, repetitive tasks and drudgery will be taken on by robots, which is, as a result, expected to accelerate digital transition.

In particular, Chuncheon becomes the first local government that utilizes the automatic system in road occupy permission.

An official of the city said, "With RPA, human members can be freed up from boring repetitive tasks to undertake more valuable and useful activities. We will gradually expand the scope of RPA application in the administrative works in the Chuncheon."
