[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] The Small and Medium Business Corporation (Chairman Kim Hak-do, hereinafter referred to as SBC) announced on the 23rd that it presented a plaque of appreciation to Yeosu Korean Hospital (Director Lee Hae-ong), an outstanding company enrolled in the Tomorrow Savings Program, at the Yeosu Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Yeosu, Jeollanam-do.


Yeosu Korean Hospital, a leading regional general hospital, has 103 employees enrolled in the Tomorrow Savings Program, accounting for 48% of its total 214 staff. Notably, despite the ongoing spread of COVID-19, 56 new employees joined the program this year alone.


SBC explained that considering the average number of enrollees per company participating in the Tomorrow Savings Program is within three, Yeosu Korean Hospital's large-scale enrollment is significant. Yeosu Korean Hospital actively utilizes a dedicated savings product for youth under 34 years old to establish a virtuous cycle employment structure that attracts excellent medical personnel and encourages long-term retention and asset formation among young medical staff.


The hospital supports employees enrolled in the Youth Employee Tomorrow Savings Program with 200,000 KRW per month. Young medical staff pay 7.2 million KRW over five years, and with the hospital’s contribution of 12 million KRW and government subsidies of 10.8 million KRW, including compound interest, they accumulate a lump sum of over 30 million KRW upon maturity.


Director Lee Hae-ong of Yeosu Korean Hospital said, "We introduced the Tomorrow Savings Program to support the long-term retention of medical staff who are working hard on the front lines of COVID-19 and to foster mutual growth. Through this, we aim to enhance the expertise and proficiency of medical personnel and become a top medical institution providing high-quality medical services."



An Jeong-gon, Head of the Job Division at SBC, said, "We will do our best to ensure that the Tomorrow Savings Program, which supports the long-term retention of key personnel through performance sharing with workers, serves as a catalyst for attracting excellent talent to the workplace."
