Uiwang City Corporation Obtains Human Rights Management System Recertification

[Suwon Ilbo=Kim Chung-young] Uiwang City Corporation announced on the 18th that it recently obtained recertification for the "2024 Human Rights Management System" from KSR Certification.

"Human Rights Management System Certification" is a system wherein an organization establishes policies and objectives to systematically manage human rights management, and KSR Certification, a specialized evaluation agency, objectively assesses compliance with international human rights management requirements and issues certification.

Uiwang City Corporation first obtained human rights management system certification in 2021, underwent post-assessment audits in 2022 and 2023, and renewed its 2024 human rights management system certification.

The corporation achieved recertification by establishing a human rights management system through various methods including operating reporting channels for abuse of authority (human rights violations), promoting the "Four Zeros Movement" (zero abuse, zero accidents, zero sexual misconduct, zero impropriety), and holding human rights management pledge ceremonies for all employees and executives.

Gwon Hyuk-cheon, Acting President of the Corporation, stated, "The importance of human rights management is increasingly rising alongside ESG management," and added, "As international standards for human rights management and the interest of internal and external stakeholders continue to grow, we will fulfill our responsibilities as a state-run enterprise through human rights management and become a corporation trusted by citizens."
