Responding to Government Resource Security Crisis Alert Amid Middle East Conflict


Maintaining Appropriate Indoor Temperatures and Promoting Practical Daily Actions

In response to the energy crisis triggered by the Middle East war, BNK Financial Group has launched a company-wide campaign to promote energy conservation.


BNK Financial Group (Chairman Byun Daein) announced on March 25 that it will conduct an "Energy Conservation Practice Campaign" with full participation from all employees, in line with the government's resource security crisis alert.


This campaign will be implemented across all group affiliates. Its purpose is to reduce power consumption and spread a culture of efficient energy use through activities that can be practiced in daily life.


BNK is first introducing a vehicle use rotation system for employees, restricting use based on license plate numbers. The use of public transportation for commuting is also strongly encouraged. Through these measures, the company aims to reduce energy consumption in the transportation sector and lower carbon emissions.


In office spaces, the standards for maintaining appropriate indoor temperatures will be strengthened. Air conditioning will be set at 26 degrees Celsius or higher, and heating at 20 degrees Celsius or lower, with plans to minimize unnecessary power usage.


BNK will also expand the use of video conferencing. By reducing business trips and travel, the company aims to encourage energy savings across all work activities.



A BNK Financial Group representative stated, "The energy conservation practice campaign goes beyond cost reduction; it is a measure to respond to the national crisis and realize sustainable management," adding, "We will continue to achieve tangible savings based on employee participation."
