Bucheon City Hall

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Bucheon City in Gyeonggi Province announced on the 24th that it selected Bucheon Women and Youth Foundation, Bucheon Urban Corporation, and Bucheon Cultural Foundation as the best institutions in the anti-corruption policy evaluation of invested and contributed organizations.

The city received performance reports on anti-corruption policy evaluations from November last year to October this year and conducted quantitative and qualitative evaluations based on 15 indicators across four areas: ▲establishment of anti-corruption promotion plans ▲creation of an integrity ecosystem ▲securing effectiveness of corruption control ▲performance and dissemination of integrity administration and management. According to the results, four grades were assigned: best, excellent, average, and insufficient.

Among the five institutions, the first place was taken by Bucheon Women and Youth Foundation, which received balanced scores across all indicators.

Bucheon Women and Youth Foundation strengthened the foundation of anti-corruption and integrity policies through organizational restructuring by establishing an audit department (creating an independent system) and reinforcing audit personnel. It was also evaluated for creating an integrity ecosystem by conducting a campaign to eradicate the gapjil culture and producing and distributing a manual related to the protection of rights for housekeeping managers.

In particular, it received good evaluations for actively accepting recommendations to improve the management plan for drunk driving in public-related organizations.

The foundation, along with Bucheon Industrial Promotion Agency and Bucheon Urban Corporation, actively implemented anti-corruption system improvement tasks such as disciplinary standards for drunk driving at the level of public official discipline and establishing a self-inspection system for drunk driving through verification of driving record certificates.

The anti-corruption policy evaluation is a system that evaluates anti-corruption activities and achievements autonomously promoted by public institutions to enhance integrity.

Since 2017, Bucheon City has conducted annual anti-corruption policy evaluations for five affiliated organizations and selects institutions scoring 90 points or higher in absolute evaluation as the best institutions.

A Bucheon City official stated, "By discovering unique integrity policies for each affiliated organization and introducing excellent cases from other institutions, anti-corruption capabilities are continuously maintained and strengthened, and the level of anti-corruption integrity policies is gradually becoming standardized at a higher level."
