The issue of refund of incentives has been raised since last year… upper line ‘shush’
Airport Corporation posted an apology following explaining “it is not true”
‘Blindfolded’ behavior, previous government experience is sufficient
While the Yun Seok-yeol administration has begun intensive reforms for public institutions, the ‘skinny work’ of Korea Airports Corporation, which is the largest shareholder with a 51.7% stake in the Ministry of Strategy and Finance, the vanguard of the reform, is going beyond the limit.
on the 23rd of last month[단독] Korea Airports Corporation, inflated net profit and passed it on to incumbent employees> has been reported. This is a case of being caught trying to collect more bonuses for retirees who had to vomit when management evaluation grades were lowered on current employees.
In fact, within the corporation, the issue of refund of performance-related pay due to a drop in the management evaluation rating began to appear last year.
At that time, the story of Son Chang-wan, the former president of Korea Airports Corporation, who was the representative of the so-called ‘camcorder (camp, code, and the Democratic Party)’ appointed by the Moon Jae-in government, came out.
The rumors regarding the issue of bonus pay at the upper level overlapping with ‘the time to be careful regarding falling leaves’ is famous enough.
As time passed, and following the replacement of CEO Son, the newspaper obtained internal documents and raised the issue of refund of incentives to the surface, and the KTO immediately issued an explanation, saying, “It is not true at all.”
After the report was published, it is known that there was a tense confrontation between the internal staff.
One side said, “We need to find out who brought up the internal performance pay issue. He said that he protested the article, such as, “Thanks to the public debate, the bonus will be reduced in the future.” The other side said, “Even if the issue is raised internally, the labor and management remain silent, but if it doesn’t work, it should be made public. It was a content that needed a sufficient explanation.”
On the other hand, contrary to the clarification of the Airport Corporation, which was not at all true, an apology regarding performance-related pay was posted on the internal bulletin board. In an official apology, the head of the Management Evaluation Office apologized to the members, saying, “We will properly recover overpaid performance pay for retirees.”
Of course, the apology disappeared two weeks following it was posted, and now there is no trace of it. It was the moment when I confirmed the closed airport corporation culture once once more, and at the same time, I thought that the deception of the people had crossed the line.
Some of Jeju International Airport’s building records were approved for use under the Building Act on June 11, 2020, and changes were registered on the 16th of the same month ⓒGovernment 24This act of deceiving the public by the Airport Corporation was reported on the 6th of this month.[단독] 30 million people per year using Jeju International Airport terminal exposed to fire defenseless> continued.
The construction manager of the Airport Corporation analyzed in the article cannot be modified by anyone, so it is certain that the building is illegal due to the lack of approval for use under the Building Act. Nevertheless, Airport Corporation used the similarities between the Aviation Act, which was already abolished in 2017, and the current Airport Facilities Act, to distribute the explanatory material as if it were not true at all.
In 2019, when I heard that there was no problem because it had never been subjected to a fine by the city of Jeju, and it was approved under the Airport Facilities Act, I even doubted whether it was ‘contributing to the welfare of the people’, one of the purposes of the establishment of Korea Airports Corporation. Before being a journalist, as a citizen.
Although it is not unconditionally true in the clarifications that many people see, Aung-sik Aung-sik’s ‘skinny craftsmanship’, who rushed to get behind the scenes, was experienced in the previous government is sufficient.
Although high-intensity innovation of public institutions in a large frame that the Yoon Seok-yeol administration is strongly promoting is important, small innovations such as providing the right information to the public are also one of the key factors to prevent corruption of public institutions.
It is hoped that the Yoon administration’s public institution innovation will be successfully completed and that such a case will not occur once more.
