DL E&C built a “sustainable co-growth model” with partner companies.
- Earned the highest grade in the Win-Win Growth Index for 6 consecutive years
- Provided substantial support for partner companies to bolster fairness and co-growth
- Strengthened ESG-based mutual growth, including subsidies for safety-related labor cost, and expanded co-growth funds
DL E&C announced on the 5th that it has received the highest grade, “Excellent,” for the sixth consecutive year in the “2024 Win-Win Growth Index Evaluation” conducted by the Korea Commission for Corporate Partnership. This year’s result comprehensively reflects fair trade between large and small/mid-sized companies, co-growth activities, and partner satisfaction.
As the close collaboration with partner companies is essential due to the nature of the construction industry, DL E&C is strengthening strategic partnerships to create a sustainable ‘co-growth ecosystem’ that goes beyond simple support. The Company runs a multifaceted practical support program covering safety, finance and technology, in order to enhance the competitiveness of its partner companies and to solidify its foundation for mutual growth.
In the safety sector, DL E&C runs a system that provides substantial support for partners’ manpower and on-site conditions. Since 2024, DL E&C has been directly subsidizing labor costs for partner companies that appoint additional safety managers beyond the legal requirements. This measure aims to alleviate the increased burden of safety management following the enforcement of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act. In 2025, DL E&C plans to significantly expand the scale of this support so that more partners can benefit, thereby helping improve safety levels at partner sites and prevent serious industrial accidents.
In August, DL E&C also held a meeting with 800 representatives from partner companies to listen directly to feedback from the field regarding worker safety, and to share directions for spreading safety culture and improving systems related thereto. Through this meeting, DL E&C is strengthening practical communication with partners and further reinforcing its field-oriented safety management framework under the principle that “safety is a non-negotiable value.”
In addition, as part of its efforts to promote co-growth with partners, DL E&C operates various financial support programs such as interest-free loans and co-growth funds to help partner companies secure liquidity.
To support partner companies facing difficulties amid rising economic uncertainty, DL E&C provides direct financial assistance through an interest-free loan program, enabling partners to secure the funds they need for stable management activities without bearing additional financing costs. DL E&C has also established a co-growth fund to subsidize a portion of the interest expenses incurred when partner companies obtain loans from financial institutions. This program plays a significant role in improving partners’ access to finance and easing the burden associated with financing.
A DL E&C representative said, “We are developing our partner-support initiatives not as simple financial sponsorship, but as a sustainable co-growth model based on ESG management principles,” adding, “We will further strengthen our co-growth platform so that the growth of our partner companies directly translates into DL E&C’s sustainable competitiveness.”
