[Asia Economy, reporter Yoo Inho] A new "Self-Safety Inspection Mobile Service App" has been launched, allowing users to conduct safety inspections of facilities.


The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport and the Korea Infrastructure Safety and Technology Corporation announced that, in order to promote a culture of safety management among facility users and managers, they have developed a self-safety inspection mobile service app that enables anyone to conduct safety inspections for free. The app will be distributed starting April 1.


This newly launched app service supports users in inspecting the safety of facilities such as nearby buildings, slopes, and retaining walls, even if they are not safety inspection experts.


The Self-Safety Inspection app provides several features, including "Conduct Safety Inspection," "Learn about Safety Regulations" for guidance on relevant laws, "Safety Education" with instructional videos, and "Get Support for Safety Activities," which allows users to inquire about inspection results.


App users can select a facility by its name or road address on the "Conduct Safety Inspection" screen. They can then refer to the assessment criteria and example photos for each inspection item, take photos of the overall facility and specific parts, check off the damage details and results, and complete the safety inspection.


Once all items have been inspected, a comprehensive score and inspection report-automatically generated as an electronic file with risk weights applied to each item-allow users to instantly assess the level of risk and retain the inspection results for future reference.



The distributed Self-Safety Inspection app can be downloaded and used for free by searching for "Self-Safety Inspection" in the Play Store for Android phones or the App Store for iPhones.
