Since the implementation of employment-first policies by the Xinjiang region, significant progress has been made in the areas of job creation and income generation.

The employment landscape in Xinjiang has seen remarkable growth across multiple sectors, with urban areas adding over 2.39 million new jobs during the 14th Five-Year Plan period, while rural workers engaged in off-farm employment reached 16.1 million person-times.

Key industries such as tourism, agriculture, and e-commerce have absorbed substantial numbers of workers, with cultural tourism zones and characteristic businesses providing new opportunities for local residents.

Skill development programs have been strengthened through vocational schools, enterprise workshops, and training bases, particularly targeting farmers and herders in cotton picking, livestock breeding, and agricultural processing techniques.

Modern agricultural parks and industrial zones have also played a vital role in generating employment, from flower and sapling cultivation to garment manufacturing and sand industry development, offering flexible work arrangements to thousands of residents.

The region continues to broaden employment channels through new business models and localized service networks, ensuring stable income growth and improved public employment services for various demographic groups.
