Hyundai Motor employees work at WeWork during business trips... After work, they travel locally

Hyundai Motor Company announced on the 11th that employees on overseas business trips can use the local shared office space 'WeWork' free of charge. This measure aims to enhance the convenience of business travelers as overseas trips have increased with the COVID-19 endemic (periodic outbreak of infectious diseases).

This policy will be implemented starting this month. Kia is also considering adopting it. When traveling abroad for business, employees need office space for paperwork or meetings, and this measure addresses complaints about the inconvenience of having to find separate locations or use hotels and cafes.

WeWork operates over 700 shared offices in more than 150 cities across 39 countries worldwide. The company expects that employees will find it convenient to use offices located in major urban centers such as the United States, Europe, India, China, and Brazil, where Hyundai Motor Company and Kia have overseas bases.

Since the second half of last year, Hyundai Motor Company and Kia employees have also resumed the option to take personal vacations for overseas travel after completing their business trips abroad. This program, which started in 2019 but was suspended due to COVID-19, has received positive feedback from employees as it helps reduce airfare costs, according to the company.
