HS HWASUNG announced on the 7th that it is strengthening its company-wide safety management system to prevent construction site accidents.
HS HWASUNG is speeding up the transition to a prevention-centered safety management paradigm by delivering response guidelines centered on the core principle of "eliminating serious accidents" to all sites.
First, HS HWASUNG shared various external risk factors, including seasonal factors, across all sites through an implementation document. This document includes key tasks for eliminating serious accidents from various government ministries, including the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, the Ministry of Economy and Finance, and the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.
HS HWASUNG reiterated its commitment to prioritize safety management across all its operations, including construction work, defect repair, and model house operation. In light of recent construction site accident patterns and government policy directions, the company is shifting its focus toward a "prevention-centered" safety management approach that aims to prevent accidents before they occur.
To this end, HS HWASUNG is enhancing proactive safety measures based on thorough risk assessments at each site, removing even minor safety hazards in advance. In particular, it plans to establish new "safety and health work guidelines" to ensure that all workers can perform their tasks under safety standards.
These guidelines systematically organize standard procedures, safety rules, and precautions for all operations at the site, serving as a practical guideline to prevent safety accidents.
HS HWASUNG plans to produce this guideline document as an offline training manual and distribute it to all sites, as well as document it online to allow workers easy access via smartphones anytime and anywhere. The company intends to implement the work guidelines starting in the second half of this year.
Jiminju, head of safety at HS HWASUNG, noted, "We must move toward a structure that does not create factors that cause accidents," and added, "We will continuously enhance our safety management system to establish a safety culture focused on accident prevention with the participation of all employees."
