Korea Racing Authority to Improve Treatment of Non-Regular Workers and Expand Recruitment of External Experts
The Korea Racing Authority (KRA) has recently been attempting various changes to enhance the efficiency of its organizational operations and fulfill its social responsibilities. In particular, it is accelerating efforts to improve the treatment of non-regular workers and plans to introduce a 'fair allowance' system early to achieve this.
This measure is one of the initiatives aimed at improving the working environment as a public institution and narrowing the gap between non-regular and regular employees. Through the introduction of this system, the KRA expects to increase employee satisfaction and create a more stable working environment.
Furthermore, the KRA operates an 'Honorary Director System' to actively listen to external voices. This system involves appointing external figures with extensive expertise and field experience in small businesses and local commercial districts as honorary directors.
Honorary directors play a role in reflecting diverse opinions from the private sector into the KRA's management. Through this, the KRA is expected to communicate more closely with the local community and effectively incorporate on-site demands into its policies.
These changes by the KRA are significant in that they simultaneously pursue the protection of internal employees' rights and interests and cooperation with external experts. Attention is now focused on how these efforts will positively impact actual management performance and the development of the local community.
