At the first event, dozens of applicants flooded in, and the application period had to be extended due to its huge popularity. As the MZ generation enters the labor market in large numbers, the service recognized the need for free and open communication suited to the characteristics of MZ generation employees.


Since his inauguration, Director Park Jong-gil has been working hard to create a workplace full of enthusiasm by establishing a vision and organizational innovation strategy reflecting the needs and characteristics of the MZ generation and creating a flexible working environment. He gladly gave the green light to this "Su·Jeo Drisil Bun" program.


This communication program was prepared as a strategic measure to utilize the flexible thinking of the MZ generation as a driving force for change within the service.


At the event, Director Park introduced the Korea Workers' Compensation and Welfare Service as a "Daedanan (大多難)" organization with a smile. This term refers to an organization with the second-largest number of employees among quasi-governmental public institutions, which, unlike other public institutions, handles various tasks such as industrial accident and employment insurance, wage claim guarantees, living stabilization fund loans, hospital operations, and faces high levels of civil complaints, making work processing difficult.


When asked by an employee about his most difficult memory, Director Park recalled, "Last year, a civil complainant who visited the headquarters' civil affairs office threw a can of beverage provided by our staff, injuring the face of the person in charge," and added, "I hurried to the scene, held the staff member's hand, and expressed my apologies and gratitude."



Director Park encouraged, "Although our sincerity was misunderstood, most of the people who come to our service are those who are sick or injured, unpaid wages, or struggling with living expenses, standing at a dead end," and said, "We are 'great' people doing 'Daedanan' work."
