Visang Education Selected as an 'Excellent Workplace Innovation Company' by the Ministry of Employment and Labor
[Asia Economy Reporter Donghyun Choi] Visang Education announced on the 24th that it has been selected as an Excellent Workplace Innovation Company by the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Korea Labor Foundation.
The Workplace Innovation Incentive Program is a system in which the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Korea Labor Foundation select and certify excellent companies that voluntarily promote workplace innovation. Companies are comprehensively evaluated on annual leave, flexible work, work methods, work culture, and satisfaction surveys to select outstanding companies.
Visang Education was rated S grade in recognition of its efforts toward workplace innovation, including ▲improvement of work performance methods ▲improvement of organizational culture ▲activation of annual leave ▲efforts to reduce overtime work. In particular, it received excellent evaluations for designing a hybrid work system to establish a flexible and efficient work environment and for preparing the necessary regulations for operating the system.
After this preparation process, Visang Education will implement the hybrid work system, which combines remote work and office work, starting from the 1st of next month, the first in the industry. Accordingly, on days when employees work remotely, they can freely choose a workplace where they can concentrate on their tasks.
This workplace innovation stems from a general consensus that, as a leading edutech company, it is necessary to transition to a digital work method. Visang Education expects that by introducing the hybrid work system, it will be able to increase work immersion and efficiency in a flexible work environment based on trust among members.
As part of preparations for implementing the hybrid work system, Visang Education introduced Microsoft 365 (M365) company-wide last July, enabling free communication and collaboration regardless of time and place. After a pilot operation period, all employees are currently performing their tasks using digital work solutions such as Teams, Outlook, and OneDrive.
Byunggeun Park, Head of Talent Development Group at Visang Education, said, "Being selected as an Excellent Workplace Innovation Company recognizes our continuous efforts toward workplace innovation, including improving organizational culture, family-friendly management, and preparing for the introduction of the hybrid work system. Through the implementation of the hybrid work system, we will not only create a flexible work environment but also support all employees to enhance work efficiency and demonstrate creativity."
