In the final stage of strategic planning we took into account the principles of good governance in general and benchmarking with best practices from all over the world.

Unified communication solution

Unified communication is an increasingly important investment for organizations looking to improve productivity and responsiveness while reducing their IT costs.

Protecting the pension rights of workers through social security agreements

As globalization has enabled various kinds of international exchanges to take place more frequently, the number of companies entering into other markets, detached workers, and migrants have increased. Accordingly, an increase in pension contributions made overseas has followed. In this regard, the National Pension Service (NPS) promoted social security agreements with the aim of reducing the contribution burden on companies and dispatched workers while protecting eligibility for benefits that were made overseas.
