Securing Outstanding Talent

Yeosu Gwangyang Port Authority (YGPA, Acting President Hwang Hakbeom) announced on June 13 that it had been certified as an excellent institution for fair recruitment for five consecutive years, as a result of establishing and operating a blind-based, job-centered recruitment system that completely excludes discriminatory factors on June 12.

The Excellent Institution for Fair Recruitment Certification is a system that grants certification to public institutions and companies that exemplarily operate fair recruitment practices focused on job competency and free from bias. The certification is awarded through document reviews and on-site inspections by the Korea Management Certification Institute, a professional certification body.
