Binggrae is expanding employment opportunities for athletes with disabilities in partnership with the Gyeongbuk Disabled Sports Association.
Binggrae announced on July 23 that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Gyeongbuk Disabled Sports Association to promote the employment of athletes with disabilities.
The signing ceremony took place that morning at the Gyeongbuk Disabled Sports Association, attended by officials from both organizations.
As part of this agreement, Binggrae has hired five athletes from the Gyeongbuk Disabled Sports Association, including players in table tennis, soccer, rugby, lawn bowling, and judo. These athletes will receive regular salaries, allowing them to continue their athletic careers in a more stable environment.
Binggrae has been steadily increasing its employment of athletes with disabilities. In June of last year, the company hired seven athletes from the Gimhae Disabled Sports Association, and it plans to hire two more athletes with disabilities in August.
A Binggrae official stated, "We are honored to support athletes with disabilities so they can focus on their training in a stable environment through this agreement. We will continue to communicate and contribute to the promotion of employment for athletes with disabilities and the development of disabled sports."
