On the 31st, Bando Construction announced that it had conducted the ‘2024 Partner Company Co-Growth Practical Training’ in collaboration with the Co-Growth Committee for partner companies.
The practical training program for co-growth, organized by the Co-Growth Committee, aims to enhance practical capabilities in co-growth and ESG management. Since last April, the program recruited participating companies, targeting large enterprises, medium-sized companies, and public institutions interested in co-growth and ESG education for partner companies. Bando Construction was selected along with three other companies. The training was conducted sequentially for a total of five companies from June to November.
The significance lies in the fact that the training is provided not only to large companies or public organizations but also to the employees of partner companies. The training theme on that day covered ‘Co-Growth, Serious Accident Punishment Act, and ESG’. The session included necessary legal and practical information on major business areas, participation methods in co-growth and cooperation foundation projects, amendments and response plans to the Serious Accident Punishment Act, and the construction subcontract payment linkage system.
Regarding ESG, education was provided on global corporate trends, partner company ESG evaluation responses, and ESG promotion cases from the perspective of small and medium-sized enterprises. Key speakers included Jang Jin-na, a labor attorney from Hyunryul Labor Corporation, Han-na Lee, a team leader at the Korea Fair Trade Mediation Agency, and Jae-wook An, the safety and health team leader at Bando Construction.
Lee Jung-ryeol, head of the construction division at Bando Construction, stated, “We aim to assist in resolving practical difficulties faced by partner companies concerning the Serious Accident Punishment Act, subcontract payment linkage system, and risk assessment to contribute to spreading a culture of co-growth. We plan to establish a comprehensive ESG management system by strengthening the ESG management capabilities of not only the main office employees but also those of partner companies.”
