BPA Certified as Excellent Reading Management Workplace for 5 Consecutive Years... Supporting Employee Reading Culture Activation

Busan Port Authority (BPA) plans to actively support employee reading activities in 2025 to foster a reading-friendly organizational culture.

Since first receiving certification as an Excellent Workplace for Reading Management in 2020, hosted by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Publication Industry Promotion Agency, BPA has maintained this certification for five consecutive years. The organization has supported voluntary reading culture among employees through initiatives such as operating an in-house book cafe, organizing reading clubs, and providing E-book (online book) subscription services.

In particular, the in-house reading clubs, formed by individuals or small groups, receive support for monthly book expenses and refreshments. As of last year, more than 60% of employees participated, making it one of the most popular and highly attended programs.

Kang Jun-seok, President of BPA, stated, “Enhancing individual creativity through reading leads to strengthening organizational capabilities. This year as well, we will prepare activation plans to encourage the in-house reading culture and spare no effort to support employees in enjoying reading.”
