Making Construction Sites Safer... HDC Hyundai Development Company Introduces Smart Risk Management System

HDC Hyundai Development Company executives are conducting a safety inspection at the City O'ciel Phase 3 site.

HDC Hyundai Development Company announced on the 2nd that it has completed the "Safety and Health System Advancement Project," conducted in collaboration with the global safety consulting firm Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance (LRQA), based on an international system standard model, and has entered the on-site pilot testing phase.

The smart safety and health system, introduced for the first time in the industry, is a program designed to connect everything from accident cause analysis to risk control monitoring within a single system, enabling multiple systems to simultaneously eliminate the causes of recurring accidents.

Going forward, all risk factors on site will be databased and automatically registered in the system, enhancing systematic risk management and work efficiency. Based on accident case analysis data from the past five years, six solutions were developed: ▲Accident Investigation and Analysis ▲Risk Assessment ▲Work Permits ▲Inspections ▲Training ▲Evaluation of Partner Companies’ Operations. These have been advanced into a systematic model suitable for the Serious Accident Punishment Act and ESG environment. Through this, HDC Hyundai Development Company has laid the foundation to advance safety accident prevention activities into smart solutions, applying data-driven smart safety and health technologies both at headquarters and on-site within a digital environment.

In particular, the risk assessment area focused on the execution capability of partner companies. By establishing a risk library database system through process mapping for each work stage, convenience and quality were improved so that partner companies and on-site supervisors can immediately use the standard risk assessment models for each required work type, just like taking a book from a library and reading it. This minimizes the time required for risk assessment and enables the derivation of accident prevention solutions independently by utilizing optimized management measures.

The project jointly promoted by HDC and Lloyd's Register Quality Assurance (LRQA) is expected to be completed as a system based on an IT platform after on-site applicability evaluations starting next year. The tentatively named HDC SAFETY-I 4.0 safety management platform will be advanced into a leading work system optimized for construction sites, including business system solutions such as accident statistics management, risk library, work permits, and inspections, as well as ICT modules like smart equipment inspection systems, wearable technology-based work permit systems, and mobile inspections.

An official from HDC Hyundai Development Company's Safety Management Office stated, "To fundamentally prevent safety accidents, we must go beyond solutions based on past experiences." He added, "To enhance the effectiveness of prevention activities, we will build a digital-based smart safety management system utilizing databases and continuously improve the safety level on site."
