Uiwang Urban Development Corporation Secures Re-certification of Human Rights Management System

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Kim Chung-young] Uiwang Urban Development Corporation announced on the 18th that it has obtained re-certification for the '2024 Human Rights Management System' from KSR Certification Institute.

'Human Rights Management System Certification' is a system in which organizations establish policies and goals to systematically manage human rights management, and KSR Certification Institute, a professional evaluation agency, objectively reviews compliance with international human rights management requirements and grants certification.

Following its initial acquisition of human rights management system certification in 2021, Uiwang Urban Development Corporation underwent follow-up audits in 2022 and 2023 and renewed its 2024 human rights management system certification.

The corporation achieved the re-certification milestone by establishing a human rights management system through various methods, including operating reporting channels for power abuse damage (human rights violations), promoting the '4 Zero Movement' (zero power abuse, zero accidents, zero sexual misconduct, zero irregularities), and hosting a pledge ceremony for all executives and employees on human rights management.

Acting President Kwon Hyuk-cheon said, "The importance of human rights management is increasingly rising alongside ESG management," and added, "As international standards for human rights management and stakeholder interest both internally and externally continue to grow, we will fulfill our responsibility as a public enterprise through human rights management and become a corporation trusted by citizens."
