CJ Logistics Provides Health Checkup-Linked Counseling Service to Parcel Delivery Workers Nationwide

CJ Logistics delivery drivers are receiving health consultation services from medical professionals.

[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] CJ Logistics announced on the 1st that it has completed signing a 'Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Health Promotion of Delivery Workers' with 23 Workers' Health Centers nationwide.

Starting with the Daegu-Gyeongsan Workers' Health Center in January, the MOU has been completed with 23 centers nationwide, and there are plans to expand health consultation services linked to health checkup results across the country. Workers' Health Centers are institutions commissioned by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency under the Ministry of Employment and Labor, providing identification of harmful factors by occupation and professional health consultation services.

This MOU is part of the implementation of the 'Joint Declaration to Guarantee Rest for Delivery Workers' announced by CJ Logistics and the Ministry of Employment and Labor in August last year. From now on, CJ Logistics delivery workers nationwide will be able to receive annual health checkups including cerebrovascular and cardiovascular items, as well as free health consultation services with medical professionals three times a year.

Considering the convenience of delivery workers, medical professionals will visit the sub-terminals where delivery workers operate to provide health checkups and consultation services. In particular, the health consultation service offers comprehensive professional medical consultations related to health, ranging from basic health consultations based on health checkup records to consultations on improving working environments.

The health consultation service includes various support services for delivery workers' health management, such as ▲post-management and occupational disease prevention consultations after health diagnosis ▲prevention and management consultations for cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases, musculoskeletal disorders, and job stress ▲occupational environment and work management consultations.

CJ Logistics began a pilot health consultation service at sub-terminals located in Incheon and Gyeongsan in September last year. So far, over 200 delivery workers have received health consultation services. Since medical professionals visit the sub-terminals directly to conduct consultations, it reduces inconvenience and has received great responses from delivery workers.

A CJ Logistics official said, “Based on this agreement, we will continue to collaborate with the 23 Workers' Health Centers nationwide,” adding, “We will strive to protect the health of CJ Logistics delivery workers through health consultation services.”
