Positive Working Environment
Ensuring a healthy and positive working environment is not only the right thing to do for our employees, but also an essential element of our business success. It encourages creativity and a sense of belonging among employees and helps them perform at their best professionally. In this respect, Korean Re is committed to promoting a corporate culture that values a healthy work-life balance for our employees.
Korean Re has implemented diverse measures to help employees maintain a heathier state of mind and body. Since 2019, “Refresh Vacation” has been provided to long-term employees, allowing them to take time off for about a month while being supported financially by the company. After taking advantage of this time off, our colleagues can come back to work refreshed and then focus more productively on their jobs.
Furthermore, our policy for employees with young children allows them to use flexible working hours so that they can better manage their childcare and family lives. “PC-Off” is another program we have established to help our employees achieve a greater work-life balance. Korean Re upholds the notion that balanced employees tend to feel more motivated, become more productive, and feel less stressed out at work.

Training and Development
Employee training is one of the most important investments a business can make. Korean Re is dedicated to helping our employees at all stages of their career grow and develop continuously. Our investment in people aims to enable them to improve their job performance and gain insight into what and how they should do at work.
Korean Re has a wide range of training programs available for employees who want to develop both in their current roles and future careers. These programs take various forms, including competence-building workshops, foreign language training, lectures by outside experts, classroom training, on-the-job training, and self-study groups.
In 2020, COVID-19 has changed the way employees are trained and educated. The existing offline programs were made accessible via online attendance. Under this new online training initiative, employees at Korean Re can take one educational course every month. More than 270 subjects or courses are available, including economics, business administration, finance, accounting, and foreign languages.
In addition, international training opportunities are provided to our employees in partnership with outside expert institutes, which offer virtual programs and customized content. A select group of employees are also sent to our overseas offices for training purposes or given an opportunity to study at an overseas academic institute.
Korean Re employees are also encouraged to study for professional qualifications that help improve their job skills and benefit the company’s business operations. By providing these various training opportunities, we will continue to help our people effectively fulfill their job responsibilities and build their careers, while making sure that training goals are well aligned with business needs and objectives to have a positive impact on our organization as a whole.
