[단독] Sunnum is LH… Drive tens of billions of jobs to retirees

◆ LH without moral insensitivity ◆

The Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH), who suffered a fatal injury to its morality due to allegations of speculation on land in a new city, is frowning upon the practice of ‘total courtesy’, which has surpassed the degree. LH retirees re-employed as’parachutes’ at private architects’ offices, and are receiving orders from LH through voluntary contracts. The new company A, created by a senior LH senior, even won a contract worth billions of won within two months of its establishment. In the industry, it is said that LH’s widespread moral insensitivity was the reason for committing speculation with internal information without hesitation, as in the’Siheung land speculation suspicion.’

According to the’Architectural Design Competition and Construction Management Service Project Order Status’ submitted by LH on the 8th by Rep. It turns out that he has a high-level position. Over the past year, LH signed private contracts worth 2252 billion won, and these 11 companies won 94.9 billion won (42.1%) contracts.

Company B, which received the largest number of orders (17.3 billion won) through private contracts with LH last year, is a former vice president of Korea National Housing Corporation, and a former director of LH is also joining as a partner. Company C, which ranked second in LH orders last year, has three joint representatives from Korea National Housing Corporation, the predecessor of LH. Including companies whose employee history has not been disclosed, the industry believes that more than 90% of the top 30 companies in the order amount have hired from LH.

The architect industry is also complaining about LH’s practice of courtesy. Some small and medium-sized architect offices are lamenting that if they don’t hire LH graduates with a high salary, they will not be able to win orders and will be driven into a test crisis. An architectural firm official said, “With the skills and know-how accumulated over decades of business being ignored, the work is being driven by LH’s former job courtesy, and the competition for orders only by the company with the former job is being held.” “It is an act that deceives all the industries that have been working hard for,” he criticized.

Regarding this, LH said, “LH complies with the voluntary contract regulations stipulated in the national contract law and is conducting contracts for all service projects such as construction.” “I can’t tell you the reason for that,” he added.

Dae-Jung Kwon, professor of the Department of Real Estate at Myongji University, said, “After retirement, LH employees often re-employment in a similar business or engage in private business. He advised, “It is not that we should do it, but we have to create a foundation for fair competition.”

Established in September 2018, Architect A won a design service worth 1.71 billion won from the Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) through a private contract. It was only two months after the company was founded. In 2019, the following year, Architect A signed a private contract with LH of 1891.48 million won, and last year, it won three architectural design services from LH for a total amount of 6.58 billion won.

Last year, the company’s voluntary contract size ranks in the top 10 among all architectural firms that signed private contracts with LH. Mr. Yoo, the representative of this company, is a person who served as the head of the headquarters (Level 1) at LH. As of the end of last year, 9556 employees are working at LH, with only 78 at the first level. The industry is suspicious of a boost for a startup company founded by a former LH. Nice Evaluation Information According to corporate information, the company’s sales increased from 460 million won in 2018 to 3,223.85 million won in 2019.

The controversy of LH’s’moral hazard (moral hazard)’, which started as employees’ suspicion of speculation on the land of a new city, is spreading to other practices such as courtesy of the whole city. Some of the architectural firms are revealing that if they fail to recruit’LH’s OB (retirees)’, they will be pushed out of the competition for orders. Actually, the Maeil Economic Daily report revealed the behavior of LH’s order contracts, which are suspected of blatantly boosting contracts of billions of won to a new company created by’top 1% LH retirees’.

According to Rep. Song Eon-suk on the 8th, out of the top 20 architectural firms (based on order amount) that won private contracts from LH last year, only 11 of the top 20 architects from LH started the company or took positions as key executives.

Company B, which received the largest number of orders (17.3 billion won) through private contracts with LH last year, is a former vice president of Korea National Housing Corporation, and a former director of LH is also joining as a partner. Company C, which ranked second in LH orders last year, has three joint representatives from Korea National Housing Corporation, the predecessor of LH.

This is a case where the biographies of executives and employees can be searched on the company website. An official in the construction industry said, “Most companies have disclosed data that they have LH graduates for marketing purposes, but there are many cases that have not disclosed externally. said.

The remaining 10% of the companies also participate in the order-taking company with the former LH job as a contributor, and it is evaluated that companies with former LH jobs are sweeping the LH architectural design contest and LH construction project management services. Architects are complaining that it is difficult to win orders for companies that do not employ LH employees. This is because most of the companies that are from LH as representatives or hired as high-ranking employees receive service orders.

An architect official said, “If the recruited LH retirees are fired or treated unfairly, rumors will arise within LH, and the company will be virtually removed from the market.” In some cases, they were pushed out of the office and couldn’t win a single order,” he said.

It is said that the industry is overheating before recruiting LH retired employees due to the blatant practice of ‘total respect’. The annual salary given to them is known to range from 150 million won to 250 million won. An official in the construction industry said, “After a company specializing in architectural design only hired a former LH job in a related job, there were cases where it suddenly received an order for a construction project management business.” “We are not able to get out of the order cliff,” he explained.

LH retirees’ issue of ‘total courtesy’ has recently been re-examined within the LH organization. It is in the process of sharing problems within the organization through an anonymous bulletin board over the recent suspicion of land speculation in a new city. An LH employee in the office worker application (app) blind explained, “There is a practice of driving all types of construction contracts and bidding to courtesy,” and “this increases the cost of apartment prices.”

Rep. Song Eon-suk said, “Amid the great shock of the Republic of Korea due to the speculation of the land of LH employees, the anger of the public has reached its peak as the situation that LH has been driving tens of billions of won through the public courtesy “LH, which was devoted to being called only their ships, must be completely renovated,” he said.
