We will focus on worker-centered safety management, construction quality, and customer service (CS) management."

The shareholders' meeting also approved the financial statements and a cash dividend of 500 won per share. Amendments to the articles of incorporation were passed as well, including the removal of the exclusion of the cumulative voting system, adding new business objectives such as renewable energy electricity supply and location information and location-based services, and establishing provisions for electronic shareholders' meetings in accordance with revisions to the Commercial Act.
