Dong-A Socio Holdings Launches 'WE UP!' to Enhance Smart Work Efficiency

Development of Shared Templates Reflecting Employees’ On-the-Job Feedback

Dong-A Socio Holdings announced on the 25th that it has implemented the 'WE UP!' program to improve smart work efficiency.

WE UP! is an abbreviation for 'Work Efficiency UP.' Based on an organizational culture diagnosis that identified inefficient work processes as a major factor hindering employees' engagement and happiness, Dong-A Socio Holdings launched the WE UP! program to enhance work efficiency.

As the first part of the WE UP! program, shared PowerPoint (PPT) templates were provided for use by employees of Dong-A Socio Group companies, including Dong-A Pharmaceutical and Dong-A ST.

According to an internal survey by Dong-A Socio Holdings, employees spend an average of about 1.7 hours daily preparing reports, and 65% of respondents reported using PPT.

To actively reflect employees' needs, opinions from various departments were gathered to investigate the types of slides frequently used in actual work. Additionally, improving reporting culture was raised as an agenda item to eliminate inefficiencies and discuss which slide types are helpful in practical work.

Employees who first encountered the shared templates expressed high satisfaction, commenting that "the increased visibility makes message delivery easier" and "it's convenient to choose from various options."

Starting with the distribution of templates, Dong-A Socio Holdings plans to carry out various activities such as distributing electronic approval manuals, streamlining categories, and improving meeting processes.

A representative from Dong-A Socio Holdings stated, "Small improvement efforts by employees accumulate to enhance the company's work efficiency and can even transform corporate culture. We will strive to eliminate inefficiencies hidden throughout work processes."
