The Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) faces a potential exodus of employees, with 85.6% indicating they would consider leaving if the agency relocates to a provincial area. Since 2022, a total of 481 employees have left the FSS, with 180 of them, or 37.4%, aged between 20 and 40.
Among employees under 40, 92.5% are contemplating a job change, and 80.4% are actively considering it. The desire to leave is particularly high among professionals such as accountants and lawyers, who express concerns about inefficiencies related to long-distance commuting and increased costs associated with a move.
Only 13.5% of employees are willing to relocate, while a significant 97.9% believe it is reasonable for the FSS to maintain its headquarters in Seoul.
