Woori Bank will introduce a "4.9-day workweek," moving Friday quitting time up by one hour.
According to the financial sector on the 6th, Woori Bank will implement an early Friday leave policy starting on the 8th. The adoption of the 4.9-day system was agreed to in industrywide labor-management talks in Oct. last year.
The common approach is to move branch quitting time up from 6 p.m. to 5 p.m.
Previously, IBK Industrial Bank of Korea adopted the system in Jan. this year, and KB Kookmin Bank and NongHyup Bank each adopted it in Mar.
