While the entry into society of career-interrupted women has become a hot topic, Coway is attracting attention by actively supporting them.

According to the industry on the 18th, Coway has been operating a door-to-door inspection sales partnership called ‘Cody’ since 1998 to encourage the social advancement of women, including those who have taken a break from their careers.

When Coway Cody was formed, it had only about 80 employees, but has now grown into a large-scale professional group with about 12,000 employees nationwide.

Unlike ordinary workers, Cody works as a door-to-door inspection salesperson (self-employed income earner) who signs a delegation contract with Coway and receives commissions for sales and inspection work.

In addition to selling Coway products to customers, the company also provides management services such as regular inspection and filter replacement for products rented by customers.

Because of the nature of Cody’s job, which allows him to combine work with housework and childcare, the proportion of women is overwhelmingly high at about 87%.

In addition, it is a good alternative for career-interrupted women who want to advance into society because they can quickly settle into their jobs by receiving support from digital technologies such as the ‘coordination matching service’ and ‘AR catalog’ provided by the company.

According to Coway, Cody has relatively free working hours and can adjust his own schedule, allowing him to work at the same time as doing housework and raising children. Due to these work advantages, the proportion of women in their 30s to 50s who are highly involved in housework and childcare is high, accounting for about 76% of the total workforce.

In fact, coordinators across the country coordinate time zones and major tasks to suit their individual lifestyles, and combine housework, childcare, and work in a variety of ways.

Cody Kim Soon-hee (37 years old, pseudonym), who is active in the Gyeongsangnam-do region, only does inspection work in the spare time after sending her children to school and before returning home, and also does sales work in her spare time.

Cody Lee Hee-eun (39 years old, pseudonym), who works in the Jeollabuk-do region, prefers to work freely without being tied down by time, so she focuses only on sales work without inspection work.

A Coway official said, “For the past 26 years, we have been proactive in providing opportunities for women, including those with career breaks in Korea, to enter society, and based on this, we have taken the lead in creating social value.” He added, “The coordinators who partner with us are smoothly generating profits in society.” “We will continue to provide support so that this can be accomplished,” he said.
