[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Jiwon] Korea Railroad Corporation (KORAIL) has established special quarantine measures to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) ahead of the written exam for new employee recruitment.


The exam will be held on the 14th at 24 testing centers across 4 regions nationwide. Approximately 43,000 candidates will take the exam in three sessions according to their application fields: 10:00 AM, 1:00 PM, and 3:30 PM.


The new employee recruitment exam was postponed twice, on March 21 and April 25, to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and protect the examinees.


All entrants, including examinees, must wear masks on the exam day. COVID-19 confirmed patients, individuals with symptoms under investigation, and those subject to quarantine are restricted from taking the exam.


To prevent infection among examinees, the exam venue entrances will be controlled to a single point, and health personnel will be stationed to conduct temperature checks and health questionnaires. Those with simple fever or respiratory symptoms will take the exam in a separately prepared isolation room.


To maintain social distancing, the number of examinees per exam room has been reduced from 30 to 16?20, securing a distance of at least 1.5 meters between desks. A professional disinfection company will thoroughly disinfect the rooms before and after the exam.



A KORAIL official stated, "We have prepared special quarantine measures so that everyone can take the exam with peace of mind," and added, "We ask examinees for their active cooperation in wearing masks and adhering to infection prevention guidelines."
