[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chun-han] Cafe24 announced on the 3rd that it will implement the 'Off Day' system starting this month, where employees work four days a week twice a month.

Off Days are the second and fourth Fridays of each month. This expands the previous leisure leave, which was a company-wide day off on the fourth Friday of each month, to include both the second and fourth Fridays. Additionally, on Fridays other than the Off Days, remote work is officially encouraged, aiming to reduce office work to four days a week.

Cafe24 expects this to enhance both employees' work concentration and job satisfaction, leading to continuous corporate growth. Furthermore, it anticipates contributing to a creative and self-directed corporate culture.

Lee Jae-seok, CEO of Cafe24, said, “The leisure leave started in 2006 was a system focused on 'let's have fun' in a social atmosphere where everyone was solely dedicated to work. Today, with improved working conditions, leisure is an activity everyone manages on their own, so the key to this Off Day system is providing sufficient time.”
