[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] KT announced on the 4th that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Korea KT Agency Council (KTAC) to jointly establish the ‘K-Partners Program’ aimed at nurturing outstanding agencies and employees, and to promote the activation of the program.

Through this agreement, KT plans to mutually cooperate with the Korea KT Agency Council in ▲ fostering excellent consultants by strengthening agency employees’ capabilities ▲ operating a loyalty program for long-term service ▲ promoting participation of agencies and agency employees in the K-Partners Program nationwide.

The signing ceremony held at the KT East building in Gwanghwamun was attended by Choi Chan-gi, Executive Vice President of KT Sales Headquarters, Kwon Oh-byeong, Chairman of the Korea KT Agency Council, and Vice Chairman Jang Gwang-deok. This agreement was established based on the shared understanding between the two organizations to revitalize the wired and wireless market, which has been stagnant due to COVID-19, and to expand agencies that create good jobs.

The K-Partners Program offers opportunities for skill enhancement and preferential benefits for long-term service to agency employees who wish to participate. KT provides sales training tailored to the needs of each agency to strengthen individual capabilities, and offers benefits such as communication fees, travel expenses, and health checkups to outstanding employees. It also includes support for 50% of disinfection costs in case of confirmed COVID-19 cases visiting the store, consolation payments for agency employees confirmed with COVID-19, support for SME operating funds, and essential office supplies.

KT explained that through the operation of the K-Partners Program, it has made significant contributions to supporting agency labor costs and has been selected for seven consecutive years as the highest grade in the ‘Corporate Win-Win Growth Index Evaluation’ announced by the Win-Win Growth Committee.

Choi Chan-gi, Executive Vice President of KT Sales Headquarters, said, “The program was planned out of concern over the loss of excellent personnel due to COVID-19 and aims to present a vision for agencies. We will continue to practice ESG management through win-win cooperation with KT agencies.”

Kwon Oh-byeong, Chairman of the Korea KT Agency Council, expressed gratitude for KT’s support in nurturing outstanding agency personnel and providing long-term service benefits, and stated, “KT and the Korea KT Agency Council will join hands to build a path that can create synergy together.”
