Korea Railroad Corporation (KORAIL) announced on the 10th that it held an 'Ethical Practice Resolution Ceremony' at its Daejeon headquarters, pledging to actively practice ethical management and become a trusted public enterprise.

This event was organized to share in advance the ten major policy tasks for ethical management to be promoted this year and to strengthen the determination of all executives and employees to practice them and become an ethical company.

The resolution, which includes prohibiting private profit-seeking, eradicating corruption, fostering a culture of respect, and fulfilling social responsibilities, was pledged by heads of affiliated offices nationwide, including management. Approximately 30,000 employees across regional headquarters and other locations will participate through electronic signatures.

KORAIL conducted a public survey in November last year to select the ten major policy tasks. After a refinement process including expert reviews, the final ethical management tasks are scheduled to be disclosed within this month.

Um Sang-heum, head of KORAIL's Ethical Management Office, explained, "While establishing an ethical management system, including acquiring the international certification for compliance management system (ISO37301) last year, we are focusing our capabilities on leading active practice rather than merely slogans."

On the day, Na Hee-seung, president of KORAIL, emphasized, "To promote ethical management that meets the public's expectations, each employee should act with the mindset that they represent the company and comply with basic social responsibilities," adding, "Let us do our best to become a healthy organization trusted by the public."
