Coupang Installs 'Around View' on All Delivery Vehicles

Measures for Coupangman Safety... First in Delivery Industry to Equip All Vehicles

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheolhyun] Coupang announced on the 25th that it will install 'Around View' on all delivery vehicles to help 'Coupangmen' drive safely. Around View is a device that uses four cameras attached to the vehicle to display a 360-degree view around the vehicle on a single screen. Through Around View, Coupangmen can secure a wider field of vision while driving and understand situations occurring all around the vehicle. It is especially expected to be of great help in preventing safety accidents when driving through alleys or narrow roads with many blind spots or when parking. Coupang plans to complete the installation of Around View on all vehicles by July this year.

Coupang has implemented various measures for safe driving so far. It has conducted safety training for Coupangmen and, for the first time in the industry, installed auxiliary mirrors, front and rear sensors, and side brake warning sounds as mandatory equipment on all vehicles. Additionally, to reduce driving fatigue for Coupangmen, Coupang operates automatic transmission vehicles. Beyond these safety measures, Coupang is the only company in the industry that directly employs delivery personnel and complies with a five-day workweek and a 52-hour workweek system.

Ko Myungjoo, Head of Human Resources at Coupang, stated, "Coupang has been striving to prevent accidents that may occur during delivery vehicle operation to protect the safety of both Coupangmen and citizens. In line with the enforcement of the Min-sik Act, we will take the lead in delivering even more safely."
