[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Jiwon] Korea Expressway Corporation announced on the 3rd that it has obtained the international standard certification for the Environmental Management System (ISO 14001) established by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in the fields of expressway design, development, construction, and maintenance.

ISO 14001 is an international standard that manages corporate activities to minimize environmental impacts and ensure eco-friendly management practices.

With this international standard certification, the Corporation has secured international competitiveness in expressway construction and maintenance projects. As many overseas road project clients increasingly require ISO 14001 certification, this is expected to have a positive impact on future overseas market expansion.

The Corporation has established a system that can efficiently manage standards and procedures related to construction waste, energy use, noise, and air quality that may occur at expressway construction and maintenance sites.

An official from the Corporation stated, "This certification acquisition is to proactively respond to the global trend of strengthening environmental regulations and actively participate in the government's Green New Deal policy," adding, "We will continue to expand eco-friendly management and fulfill corporate social responsibility continuously."
