CJ Logistics, Employees Volunteer Activities Surpass 20,000 Hours for 4 Consecutive Years
This Year, Volunteer Activities Conducted in Non-Face-to-Face Format Due to COVID-19
[Asia Economy Reporter Yu Je-hoon] CJ Logistics announced on the 8th that the total cumulative volunteer hours of all its employees reached 21,481 hours as of November. This is the fourth time since 2017 that CJ Logistics' employees' cumulative annual volunteer hours have surpassed 20,000 hours.
Amid the COVID-19 pandemic this year, which made face-to-face volunteer activities difficult, CJ Logistics carried out various non-face-to-face volunteer programs such as "Foreign Language Reading Village," where domestic and overseas employees read fairy tales in foreign languages; "Lighting Up the World," which involves making solar lanterns and delivering them to energy-deficient countries; and mask-making and newborn hat-knitting activities for underprivileged children.
A CJ Logistics official said, "Despite the challenging environment caused by COVID-19, thanks to the voluntary participation of our employees, we were able to achieve the significant milestone of surpassing 20,000 volunteer hours for four consecutive years. We will continue to strive to foster a culture of social contribution where everyone can participate and enjoy together, based on CJ Group's core management philosophy of mutual growth."
