Qlight Co., Ltd. Hosts Luncheon to Appreciate Volunteer Staff of Company Book Café - "A Warm Cup Shared from Employee to Employee"

On Tuesday, February 24, Qlight Co., Ltd. held a luncheon at its Gimhae Production Headquarters to express appreciation to employees volunteering at the company’s book café.

The Qlight Book Café is operated through voluntary employee participation. Currently, a total of 11 employees take part in the program, working in pairs once a week. Utilizing the lunch break (11:30 a.m. – 12:40 p.m.), volunteers serve coffee to colleagues. When volunteers take annual or half-day leave, the schedule is coordinated in advance to ensure smooth operation.

Beyond simply serving coffee, volunteers create a welcoming atmosphere where employees can naturally stop by after lunch. They carefully manage details such as using a consistent amount of coffee beans to maintain uniform taste and quality. Although none of the volunteers have received formal barista training, they enhance the quality of service through self-practice and preparation.

One participating employee shared, “If our small effort can provide even a brief moment of relaxation for our colleagues, that alone is rewarding. I wanted to pass on the kindness I once received from others by sharing it with my coworkers.”

A company representative stated, “The book café is not just a break area, but a cultural space where employees can engage with books and communicate naturally. A single cup of coffee shared between colleagues is helping to raise the overall warmth of our organization.” The representative added, “We will continue to support a culture of voluntary participation and sharing.”

Qlight is strengthening its people-centered organizational culture through employee participation programs such as reading management initiatives and learning community activities. The operation of the book café has also become an integral part of this corporate culture.
