This newly established vision was developed based on company-wide participation and communication. The process involved collecting ideas from all employees, selecting candidates through an open call for submissions.


A total of 22 proposals were submitted through the open call. These candidates were evaluated based on how well they reflected the corporation's human rights values, with a joint review conducted by team leaders and an external human rights working group (Yangju, Pocheon, Yeoncheon). The final candidates were then narrowed down through further evaluation by the headquarters director, department heads, and external experts, and the president made the final decision on the vision.


Notably, during the evaluation process, the selection of candidates incorporated the opinions of each judge based on a preference survey. The entire process was especially meaningful as it reflected the values of communication and collaboration.


Additionally, after being reported to the Human Rights Management Committee, the newly established vision will be actively shared with employees through internal channels such as community postings, official notifications, and team-based training. Externally, the corporation plans to increase public awareness and empathy by posting the vision on its website and promoting it through the media and to other organizations.



Kim Yongseok, President of Uijeongbu Urban Corporation, stated, "This human rights management vision is the result of incorporating the voices of all our employees and a variety of external opinions." He added, "We will immediately apply this new vision to our human rights management system and ensure that it is substantially reflected in our human rights management goals and projects."
