Hanjin said on November 11 that it held its "Family Day" event on November 6 at its headquarters in Sogong-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, inviting employees and their families.

Family Day was designed to give employees' children a firsthand experience of their parents' workplace and give families a chance to spend time together at the company and better understand one another. First held in 2019, the event is being held for the fifth time this year, excluding years when it was suspended during the COVID-19 pandemic. It was open to employees with children ages 5 to 12, and a total of 53 people, including children and spouses, took part this year.

In the morning, children toured their parents' workspaces and experienced the smart office through a program called "A Visit to Mom and Dad's Workplace." They also took part in a one-day class where they decorated keycaps, the decorative pieces fitted onto keyboard keys, and made dolls from pipe cleaners. The children created their own works by finishing the decorated keycaps and handmade pipe-cleaner dolls, and enjoyed the activities with their parents.

In the afternoon, the program continued with activities parents and children could enjoy together, including a magic balloon show and recreation. The event also featured a "Parcel Mailing Experience," where participants got to try out Hanjin's key parcel delivery service. The children went through the parcel-sending process themselves, learning how logistics services work in everyday life and getting a closer look at what the company does.

Hanjin offers a range of programs and policies to foster a workplace where employees can maintain a work-life balance and communicate with one another. These include Family Day, smart office arrangements, flexible work schedules, a relaxed dress code, support for in-house clubs, and a buddy program for new hires.

A Hanjin representative said, "Family Day is an event designed to give children a firsthand experience of their parents' workplace and give families a chance to make precious memories together. We will continue to foster a workplace where employees and their families can feel satisfied and proud, and expand a family-friendly corporate culture."
