The event, which took place on April 15, was attended by Sungjo Park, CEO of PwC Consulting Happiness Sharing, who accepted the ministerial commendation. PwC Consulting Happiness Sharing is the first standard workplace for people with disabilities operated as an affiliate company in the consulting industry. Since its establishment on July 26, 2023, it began hiring people with disabilities in August of the same year. Currently, 20 employees with disabilities (with over 60% in permanent positions) are working at the company.

These employees are responsible for a range of tasks, including PwC Consulting office management, dispatch and delivery of internal and external mailbags, sending registered mail, and other administrative support work.

Hongki Moon, CEO of PwC Consulting, stated, "The affiliate-type standard workplace for people with disabilities is PwC Consulting's initiative to make the employment of people with disabilities not just a form of support, but a core pillar of organizational operations. We will continue to build a sustainable employment model where people with and without disabilities can grow together through ongoing interest and investment at the parent company level."
