COSRX Selected Again as “Korea Outstanding Job-Creating Company”… Leading K-Beauty Employer
Selected Again in 2026 Following 2022
Recognized for Expanding Youth Employment and Improving Job Quality
The global skincare brand COSRX announced on September 30 that it has been selected as a “2026 Korea Outstanding Job-Creating Company,” a designation led by the Ministry of Employment and Labor. This is the second time COSRX has received this honor, following its selection in 2022, once again recognizing its ongoing efforts in expanding employment and improving the working environment.
With this latest recognition, the company plans to continue its personnel and organizational management approach, further strengthening the foundation for mutual growth between employees and the company.
The "Korea Outstanding Job-Creating Company" certification is a system in which the Ministry of Employment and Labor selects and accredits companies that exemplify the creation of quality jobs and improvement of job quality.
COSRX has steadily expanded youth-focused employment alongside continuous business growth. Through university-industry cooperation and internship programs, it has broadened opportunities for young people to gain work experience and pursue employment, while also consistently enhancing the employee compensation system and wage structure. The company has prioritized not only quantitative growth in employment but also qualitative improvements in job quality.
The company is also continually strengthening its workplace environment and employee benefits to support work-life balance. It operates flexible work schedules, staggered working hours, reduced working hours for pregnant employees and those with young children, and telecommuting systems. In addition, based on employee input, it has expanded a range of employee benefits including welfare points, company resorts, intra-company loans, health checkups, EAP psychological counseling, and internal club activities.
COSRX also implements competency-based recruitment that prioritizes job capabilities and growth potential over academic background or personal history, and is reinforcing support for continuous development through job training and external seminars. The company is actively fulfilling its social responsibility and fostering coexistence with the local community, for example by donating its products to areas impacted by wildfires and to military service members.
