30 Aug. 2013

○ Officials from the management and labor union of KOSHA volunteered for rural community in Gangwon-do on 29 and 30 of August as part of talent donation.

○ The community is a very small town called “Byeolcheonji maul” located in Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do at an altitude of 700 meters where only 25 families live. The average age of residents is 60 and they are in needs of help from outside. KOSHA has developed a sister relationship with the town to fulfill its corporate social responsibilities.

○ 20 officials from KOSHA and a voluntary group “Love for Safety” repaired old and damaged electrical facilities and helped harvest herbs and other crops.

○ Baek Hun-ki, president of KOSHA, reaffirmed his commitment to volunteer work saying, “KOSHA, as a public institution, will remain committed to corporate social responsibilities and continue the support for the vulnerable.”
