Industrial Bank of Korea was recognized for not only fulfilling its legal obligations as a public institution but also for establishing a culture that enables a balance between work and family life.
In particular, the bank's voluntary disclosure of this certification in the capital market provided an opportunity to transparently demonstrate its non-financial achievements from an ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) perspective.
The bank stated that it has implemented practical family-friendly policies that employees can genuinely experience.
Key examples include establishing a culture of leaving work on time through the introduction of a PC-off system, expanding childcare policies to address the low birthrate issue, and fostering a healthy work environment by promoting flexible work arrangements.
