Youngone Corporation Provides Vision Tests and Eyeglasses to 12,000 Employees at Bangladesh Complex

On April 29, Youngone Corporation announced that it had conducted vision tests for employees at its eco-friendly industrial complex, KEPZ (Korean Export Processing Zone), in Bangladesh, and provided free eyeglasses to those who required vision correction.

Through this program, a total of 12,300 individuals received glasses tailored to their personal vision needs. The vision tests and production of the glasses were carried out in partnership with the NGO VisionSpring, with all costs covered by Youngone Corporation and its buyers.

Since 2019, Youngone Corporation has continued to offer vision tests and eyeglasses support to employees at its overseas production subsidiaries, including those in Bangladesh and Vietnam. To date, approximately 78,000 individuals have undergone vision screening, and about 24,000 of them have received eyeglasses.

Given the low rate of eyeglass distribution in the region, many employees who wore glasses for the first time reported noticeable improvements in work efficiency and greater convenience in daily life due to enhanced vision.

Rae Eun Sung, Vice Chairman of Youngone Corporation Group, stated, "Creating a safe and healthy working environment is of utmost importance," adding, "We will continue to provide support to promote the health of our employees."

Meanwhile, Youngone Corporation operates a variety of welfare programs at its overseas production facilities, including medical clinics, health management programs for female employees, and medical support for employees' families.
