We support employees' growth in three main pillars: Competency, Value, and Leadership, as we seek to achieve both external growth through improved employee performance and internal growth that will drive the organization's long-term development.

Promoting Diversity

SK Ecoengineering is committed to enhancing employee diversity as a key driver of competitiveness and social value realization. To bolster diversity and equity in our recruitment process, we have expanded direct recruitment and increased the employment of persons with disabilities through special recruitment programs. For employees with disabilities, we are promoting the creation of new jobs that go beyond simply meeting employment indicators and support their independence and self-fulfillment. To this end, we offer jobs at our headquarters and in our sites, and continue to collaborate with various stakeholders.

Employee Benefits

SK ecoengineering is committed to enhancing employee well-being by designing diverse benefits programs that consider both leisure activities and life cycles. We continuously improve the work environment and enhance support for work-life balance.

Performance Evaluation and Rewards

Employee performance evaluations are conducted objectively based on fair procedures and data-driven assessments. To ensure transparency, employees complete a self-review, receive timely feedback, and have their performance continuously managed. In addition to an absolute evaluation system, SK ecoengineering incorporates our "Core Values" into the performance review process. This approach fosters a culture of mutual success, ensures that employees' efforts are recognized throughout the goal-setting, execution, and outcome stages, and ultimately enhances organizational performance.

From a compensation perspective, SK ecoengineering ensures fair rewards by reflecting roles and performance contributions. To recognize and reward both individual and organizational achievements, we operate a performance-based incentive bonus system, which is awarded annually to all employees, including non-regular workers.

Work-Life Balance Support

SK ecoengineering operates various programs and policies to promote work-life balance, focusing on "work & growth, work & leisure, and work & family." To foster a flexible and autonomous work culture, we implement flexible work hours, a desk-sharing system, and remote work options, allowing employees to diversify their work locations and schedules while maintaining productivity.

For employee development, SK ecoengineering offers mySUNI, SK Group’s online education platform, as well as graduate school support programs and language courses. From a work-family balance perspective, SK ecoengineering has diversified support programs to cater to employees' needs at different life stages. We operate family-friendly benefits, including expanded parental leave, new pregnancy and childbirth support programs, and maternity protection policies. Additionally, we offer the Happy Umbrella Loan, workplace childcare centers, and expanded health checkups for spouses and immediate family members to further support employees and their families.

Additionally, our canteen is stocked with coffee and tea, for employees at any time.

To address employee stress and post-pandemic mental health recovery, SK ecoengineering has provided professional psychological counseling services for employees, spouses, and children since June 2022.

We have also operated various recognition programs, including the SUPEX Awards, Good Impact Awards, and Small Success Case Awards, and plan to expand them further through a wider range of programs and initiatives.

In addition, through the Management Development Council, an official labor-management consultative body, employees and management communicate on a regular basis. We also actively operate various channels, such as Town Hall Meetings and Comm.Day, to listen broadly to employees’ opinions and promote two-way communication.
