[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Jong-hwa] Dongyang (CEO Jung Jin-hak), an affiliate of Eugene Group (Chairman Yoo Kyung-sun), announced on the 23rd that it has simultaneously acquired international standard certifications for industrial safety and environmental management.

Dongyang's Plant Business Division Budget Plant recently obtained both the 'ISO 45001' certification, an international standard for occupational health and safety management systems, and the 'ISO 14001' certification, an international standard for environmental management systems, from the Korean Standards Association (KSA) for all processes of product manufacturing.

Since 2019, Dongyang has been actively pursuing ISO 45001 and 14001 certifications to secure global competitiveness through company-wide safety management and to leap forward as a sustainable company in the future through environmental management.

The 'ISO 45001' certification acquired by Dongyang is an international standard for safety and health management at workplaces, aimed at preventing various risks that may occur in industrial sites. Certified workplaces can expect effects such as reduced accidents and work loss rates, and decreased defect rates due to improved workplace environments.

'ISO 14001' is an international standard certification granted to companies that have established a systematic system to efficiently manage the environmental impact of their business activities. By adopting ISO 14001, companies can efficiently manage compliance with environmental regulations and accident prevention, gaining economic benefits as well as enhancing corporate image.

Prior to this certification, Dongyang's Plant Business Division obtained ISO 9001 certification in 1994, recognized for quality management through continuous quality control, and has maintained the certification through systematic management to this day.

Dongyang expects that holding the ISO 9001 certification along with the newly acquired ISO 45001 and 14001 certifications will greatly help not only corporate credibility but also strengthen future order competitiveness.

A Dongyang official stated, "For sustainable corporate growth, establishing a corporate culture of safety and eco-friendly management is essential," adding, "We plan to continuously show interest and support to create a safe and eco-friendly working environment and a highly productive factory, using this certification acquisition as an opportunity."
