Jeju Development Corporation Headquarters

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] The Jeju Samdasoo business site has been recognized for its efforts to establish a safety culture and build an autonomous safety management system on site, obtaining certification for its Occupational Health and Safety Management System.

Jeju Special Self-Governing Province Development Corporation announced on the 22nd that it recently acquired the manufacturing Occupational Health and Safety Management System (ISO45001) certification from the Korea Standards Association.

The ISO45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System expands the scope of safety activities from being centered on safety managers to involving top executives, all organizational members, and stakeholders. It is a system that systematically manages employee safety and health by predicting and preventing potential risks in workplace activities, ultimately protecting employees' health and safety while contributing to corporate profitability.

Last year, the Jeju Samdasoo business site of the corporation declared a safety and health management policy prioritizing "safety and health as the top priority of corporate activities," and has been improving related systems such as the Occupational Health and Safety Management Manual while striving to establish a safety culture through raising employee awareness.

Last month, auditors from the Korea Standards Association highly evaluated the corporation for establishing and managing safety and health plans and operating the system according to processes. An appropriate training system for different emergency levels has been established, and feedback on training results was also confirmed to be excellent.

In particular, the certification audit received high marks for continuously practicing improvements by operating risk assessments involving the entire company, the Occupational Health and Safety Committee, and the Occupational Health and Safety Council.

The auditors stated that monitoring, measurement, analysis, and performance evaluation related to occupational health and safety are being properly managed for improvement, and they urged the corporation to put more effort into continuous education and training to ensure early establishment of the system.
