Lotte Construction Holds 61st Anniversary Event Online

Ha Seok-ju, CEO of Lotte Construction

[Asia Economy Reporter Donghyun Choi] Lotte Construction announced on the 14th that it will hold its 61st anniversary celebration as a non-face-to-face event in response to the government's quarantine policies due to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

Lotte Construction's founding anniversary is on September 15, and this year, employees will take a holiday. President Ha Seok-ju plans to deliver congratulatory messages and words of encouragement to employees via the company's intranet on that day, and awards such as the Lotte Construction Employee of the Year will be given individually.

President Ha expressed gratitude for the employees' hard work and emphasized strengthening competitiveness in securing orders and enhancing fundamental values for customers, urging continuous growth by securing future growth engines.

In March, when the uncertainty of the domestic and international economy deepened due to COVID-19, Lotte Construction established a sustainable growth foundation through an emergency management code of conduct and a declaration of ethical management practice.

Additionally, by introducing video conferences, video interviews, and temporary telecommuting, and implementing flexible dress codes for employees, the company has been recognized for proactively responding to COVID-19 with organizational culture innovation suited to the untact era in the construction industry.

President Ha stated, “Lotte Construction aims to continuously grow as a company loved and trusted by providing better services to customers and creating social value. Although the situation is difficult due to COVID-19, I ask everyone to take this crisis as an opportunity and strive to strengthen competitiveness and organizational resilience to secure future growth engines for Lotte Construction's 61st anniversary.”
