Goheung-gun, Easy Access to Government Office with Just a Phone Call

Introduction of Caller Phone Number Access Control Method Enhances Personal Data Protection

Dual Benefits of Improved Visitor Convenience and Strengthened Personal Data Protection

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] The visitor logbook, which was previously filled out manually when entering government offices due to COVID-19, can now be completed with just a phone call.

Goheung-gun, Jeollanam-do announced on the 14th that it has introduced the 'Caller Phone Number Entry Management System' for the first time in Jeollanam-do on the 9th. This system allows easy management of visitor records with a single phone call to quickly trace the movement paths of confirmed COVID-19 cases among visitors to government buildings and prevent secondary infections.

Until now, all visitors entering the county office and town and township offices were required to manually write their name, mobile phone number, and residence. However, the handwritten logbook raised concerns about personal information leakage and caused inconvenience to visitors.

With the newly introduced system, when visitors enter the government building, they make a call to a designated phone number following the staff's guidance using their own mobile phone. The visitor's phone number and visit date and time are automatically saved on the county office server and deleted after four weeks.

Visitor A said, "I often visit the county office for work, and it was inconvenient to write my name and phone number every time I visited. Changing to the phone number entry management system saves time and is convenient."

A county official explained, "We introduced this system to strengthen COVID-19 personal information protection, alleviate visitors' concerns about personal information leakage, and ensure there is no inconvenience when entering the government building."

Meanwhile, Goheung-gun is doing its best to prevent COVID-19 from entering the county office by installing two air shower disinfectors and two thermal cameras at the entrance doors of the government building to strengthen disinfection measures.
