Hyundai Glovis Distributes 'Logistics Site Safety Manual' Free of Charge... Supporting Small-Scale Workplaces

[Asia Economy Reporter Dongwoo Lee] Hyundai Glovis announced on the 11th that it has produced and distributed free of charge a ‘Logistics Site Safety Manual’ to create a safe logistics environment. The company selected five logistics centers in the Seoul metropolitan area and delivered 500 copies of the safety manual booklet to small and medium-sized logistics companies residing there through a non-face-to-face method.

Hyundai Glovis created the manual based on its accumulated safety management know-how to support small-scale workplaces that find it difficult to establish their own safety management systems. This is to raise workers’ awareness and enable prompt action in case of accidents, as various safety incidents such as fires, crushing, and entrapment have been frequently occurring at logistics sites recently. Additionally, 500 portable fire extinguishers were provided.

The manual includes practical information gathered through interviews with workers. In the future, the distribution of the manual will be expanded nationwide, and it will also be provided free of charge to all partner companies.

Hyundai Glovis continues various activities to ensure safety in the logistics industry. It provides free installation of safety railings on the sides of cargo compartments of car carrier trucks to prevent fall accidents during vehicle loading and unloading. Previously, it distributed 20,000 safety kits to help prevent accidents and support personal hygiene for logistics workers.

A Hyundai Glovis official said, “We have prepared the manual so that logistics industry workers can work systematically and safely,” adding, “We will continue to contribute to creating a safe logistics environment as a leading domestic logistics company.”
