Gangnam-gu Conducts Elevator Safety Accident Prevention Activities Through Year-End

5 Videos, Distribution of 3 Types of Stickers Including 'Watch Your Fingers' ... Direct Application Available via District Office Website

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gangnam-gu (District Mayor Jeong Soon-gyun) will intensively carry out 'elevator safety accident prevention activities' targeting managers of multi-use facilities and apartment complexes in the area until the end of the year.

This prevention activity replaces the joint elevator accident response training canceled due to COVID-19, distributing five safety accident prevention videos for monitor display inside elevators and three types of stickers: 'Safe Use of Elevators,' 'Emergency Call Device Guide,' and 'Caution: Finger Pinching.'

In particular, the stickers will be attached to public facilities such as the district office and community service centers, multi-use facilities, and apartment complexes, while the safety accident prevention videos will be provided to local educational institutions for active use.

Elevator managers can apply for the videos and stickers through the district office website.

For more details, inquiries can be made to the Architecture Division.

Meanwhile, the district has taken the lead in creating a 'safe city for all' by restoring 240 sites at risk of ground subsidence through proactive exploratory work conducted last September.

Jungseop Park, head of the Architecture Division, said, "Gangnam-gu has the largest number of elevators among Seoul's 25 autonomous districts, with 16,073 units," adding, "We will continue to strive to uphold the status of a clean and safe 'top autonomous district' and contribute to creating a 'dignified Gangnam.'"
