The background of this award is the establishment of an excellent work environment, the establishment of an autonomous and horizontal organizational culture, and support for employees' capacity development.
Even after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, Haylion has been operating with high response from its employees by operating a telecommuting and weekly attendance system. In addition, for childbirth and childcare support, maternity leave of up to six months is introduced regardless of gender, and salaries are preserved and paid to actively support the balance between work and family. Like a healthcare company, it also operates an employee care program called leading with care, putting the health and well-being of employees first, and actively conducts various emotional and physical local programs throughout the year, including psychological counseling, mental health education, and well-being week. The fact that about 65% of female leaders at the executive level are female leaders also proves that it is a good place for women to work.
Haylon Korea is a young organization in its 30s and 40s, striving to ensure healthy communication between employees through a horizontal organizational culture. It is called 'nim' without a position, and operates a face-to-face communication channel with employees every month and quarter to engage in two-way oral communication. The company-wide refresh workshop, which leaves the company every year, is a huge hit with employees. In addition, Earth Day tree planting activities and founding anniversary healthcare volunteer activities are continued to help employees experience the value of environmental protection and healthcare that the company considers important and build friendship.
It also operates various programs in employee competency development. It has established a global and Korea-Japan talent exchange program to regularly provide employees with opportunities to gain experience abroad, share career experiences, and support level-tailored leadership training and talent training programs to accelerate career development in the UK where its headquarters are located.
CEO Shin Dong-woo, who was selected as the 'most respected CEO in Korea', took office in 2021 and successfully completed the critical mission of spin-off in two months. Despite the large changes in mission and identity, it has continued to operate smoothly by responding appropriately to the market, consumers, customers, and suppliers. He has been the head of consumer healthcare for global pharmaceutical companies such as Pfizer and Sanofi for more than 10 years and is an expert who deeply understands the unique business area that combines healthcare and consumer characteristics. Focusing on trust and communication, a lot of attention has been paid to creating a work environment and preparing policies for improving the working environment of employees and creative capacity.
Meanwhile, in November last year, Haylon Korea was certified as the "2024 Best Company to Work in Korea" organized by the Great Place To Work Institute (GPTW), a global trust management evaluation agency, and hosted by GPTW Korea, and was also selected as a special category for the "2024-2025 Best Company for Korean Women to Work".
