Development of Outstanding Talent
Talent Management Strategy
Under the slogan “Excellent People, Excellent Company,” HanmiGlobal recognizes continuous investment in people as a core element of sustainable management.
The construction project management industry is one in which project quality, safety, schedule, cost, and customer satisfaction are determined by the level of employees’ leadership and professional capabilities.
Accordingly, HanmiGlobal manages talent development not merely as an employee benefit or training initiative, but as a strategic priority for strengthening business competitiveness and creating customer value.
Based on its talent philosophy, HanmiGlobal has established an enterprise-wide leadership pipeline spanning Junior Employees – Leaders (Head Office Team Leaders and Project Site Managers) – Executives. The company operates an integrated talent development system that organically connects leadership development, global capabilities, pre-construction and job expertise, digital-based learning, and fair performance evaluation and compensation.
In particular, HanmiGlobal aims to achieve a 25% professional certification holder ratio by 2027 by establishing a virtuous cycle that links competency assessment, customized training, self-directed learning, practical application in the workplace, performance evaluation, and compensation.
This approach represents the core operating philosophy of HanmiGlobal’s talent management strategy, which seeks to transform employee growth into a sustainable engine for corporate growth.
Mandatory Human Rights Training
HanmiGlobal’s talent development system is operated based on an approach that reflects the characteristics of its business and the differences in roles by position and function. The company identifies required capabilities according to employees’ career stages and job characteristics and integrates various programs, including leadership development, global competency enhancement, pre-construction and job expertise development, advancement of digital learning systems, and evaluation-linked compensation systems. Through this approach, HanmiGlobal ensures that learning goes beyond simple completion of training programs and contributes directly to project execution capabilities, customer responsiveness, accumulated technical expertise, and organizational performance. In particular, HanmiGlobal has established a comprehensive development framework connecting competency assessment - training - mentoring - workplace application - performance evaluation and compensation, rather than operating education as a collection of independent courses. This approach focuses on achieving practical capability enhancement and strengthening organizational competitiveness. The company aims to ensure that employees’ expertise extends beyond individual growth and contributes directly to improved project delivery quality and technological competitiveness.

Expert activities are operated through a dual structure consisting of group activities and individual activities, encouraging voluntary participation and generating diverse forms of outcomes. Participating experts engage in various activities, including regular research and collaboration, preparation of technical reports, production of video lectures, and provision of on-site technical support through Technical Requests (TRs). The knowledge and technologies accumulated through these activities are shared across the organization, helping elevate the overall technical capabilities of employees and serving as a key driver for improving project quality and increasing the likelihood of successful project execution.

Linking Evaluation and Compensation
HanmiGlobal organically links performance evaluation and compensation systems to enhance the effectiveness of talent development. Through organizational performance evaluation (HPMS), individual performance evaluation, competency assessment, and 360-degree leadership evaluation, HanmiGlobal comprehensively assesses employees’ contributions and growth levels. The results are reflected in performance bonuses, salary increases, promotions, and advancement decisions.
Performance-Evaluation Process
Individual performance evaluations are conducted twice a year, once in the first and second half of the year, for all employees, focusing on goal achievement and contribution to organizational performance. HanmiGlobal’s performance evaluation system was converted to an absolute evaluation system starting in the second half of 2023. This transition enables employees to establish performance goals aligned with organizational objectives while considering their individual position, role, responsibilities, and capabilities, thereby encouraging personal growth and collaboration among colleagues. In addition, considering changes in the business environment, employees are allowed to revise their goals quarterly. To enhance organizational performance, employees are encouraged to establish ambitious, challenging, and specific goals, supported by detailed action plans that enable objective performance measurement. Goals are also shared among team members to improve transparency and facilitate collaboration. HanmiGlobal also conducts evaluation discussions between evaluators and employees and performs post-evaluation monitoring to enhance the reliability of evaluations and minimize rating bias.
