GS Engineering and Construction (GS E&C) announced a new vision Friday to boost the company's credibility and innovation.

"Perfecting a safer today, forging a brighter tomorrow. With transparent trust and relentless innovation, we create a better future for all," GS E&C CEO Huh Yoon-hong said as he announced the firm's new vision in a video uploaded on the company’s internal website on Friday.

"With the new vision, we are solidifying the reason for our company's existence. [GS E&C] will become a company trusted and loved by all parties," CEO Huh said.

The CEO said the company hopes to "create a better future for all" with "transparent trust and relentless innovation."

The new vision comes at a “time of uncertain business environments within and outside the company,” the construction firm said.

The firm also laid out its plans to “ensure internal stability” rather than focusing on external growth, ensuring a more stable company management and promoting a “safer and happier life” in the future.

The construction company hoped to change its internal work environment and culture by unifying staff titles, creating an atmosphere where "all employees can freely share their opinions."

GS E&C is best known for its Xi apartment brand.
