The SEMAS Challenge! Integrity Golden Bell is an event designed to enhance the integrity and ethical awareness of employees and to prevent potential causes of corruption in advance.

This year's competition was conducted as a three-stage survival format, including preliminary, main, and final rounds. After all SEMAS employees participated in the preliminary round, 21 finalists who passed the departmental and headquarters main rounds, along with executives from headquarters, took the stage for the final round.

The Golden Bell featured a total of 15 questions focused on anti-corruption laws and ethical standards, such as the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act, the Conflict of Interest Prevention Act, and the Code of Conduct for Employees. After fierce competition, the final three participants were selected and received certificates from the president. The first-place winner was awarded a 100,000 won digital Onnuri gift certificate, while the second and third place winners each received a 50,000 won certificate.

Park Sunghyo, President of SEMAS, stated, "Integrity is the foundation of public service and the basis of public trust," adding, "Through this Integrity Golden Bell, all employees will make integrity a part of their daily lives, establishing SEMAS as a trusted public institution."

Meanwhile, SEMAS has been expanding a variety of integrity-focused initiatives this year, including the issuance of 'Integrity Alerts,' the operation of 'Integrity Radio,' a contest for anti-bullying content, and 'Conflict of Interest Mock Reporting Drills.'
