Since signing a group blood donation agreement with the Korean Red Cross in 2006, POSCO E&C has been regularly conducting in-house blood donation drives every year as part of its love-sharing initiatives. To change the negative perception that blood donation is harmful to health, the company actively promotes the necessity of blood donation by explaining the misunderstandings and truths about it. Employees have voluntarily donated blood donation certificates for the past 18 years.

Park Jong-beom, a section leader and representative of employees who have participated in blood donations 141 times to date, said, "I am very pleased to be able to help sick children with the blood donation certificates we have collected so far," adding, "I will continue to actively participate in blood donation activities with the mindset of helping my family and neighbors."

Park Cheol-ho, head of the Corporate Citizenship Office at POSCO E&C, also said, "Through the small sharing of our employees, we hope to provide some help and hope to children and families around us who are struggling with illness and hardship."
