The Regular Employees' Council Labor Union stated, "We made the decision to work focusing solely on our colleagues, and this independent labor union was voluntarily created by the will and intention of the employees themselves," adding, "We will not distinguish between rank, entry route, region, or generation, and will focus solely on performing our fundamental duties while embracing all employees."
