The Korea Technology Agency (KTA) has initiated integrity training for all employees ahead of the Chuseok holiday, aiming to promote a culture of integrity.
According to KTA on September 21, the agency conducted 'Anti-Corruption and Conflict of Interest Law Training' on September 18 at its headquarters in Sejong.
This training was designed to enhance awareness of anti-corruption and ensure fair job performance, particularly emphasizing the importance of integrity as the Chuseok holiday approaches. It was attended by all employees, including department heads.
The training was led by integrity expert Min Soo-jin and covered topics such as the Anti-Graft Act, the Conflict of Interest Prevention Act, and the Code of Conduct for Public Officials, using real-life examples to illustrate the principles of integrity.
Kim Young-shin, the head of KTA, stated, "This training was a meaningful opportunity for employees to reflect on the importance of integrity through real cases and to enhance their sensitivity to integrity. We will continue to work towards fostering a culture of fairness and integrity within the organization to earn the trust of the public."
Additionally, KTA operates a corruption prevention system for integrity and ethical management. Since becoming the first domestic R&D institution to obtain the international standard ISO 37001 (Anti-Bribery Management System) certification in 2017, it has maintained this certification through regular assessments for ten years.
This year, KTA has updated its anti-corruption system in line with the revised ISO 37001 and plans to enhance the system's reliability and continuously strengthen ethical management through future certification renewals.
