[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Dong-hoon] Taekwang Group's textile and petrochemical affiliates, Taekwang Industrial and Daehan Chemical Fiber, announced on the 15th that they have joined the "Creating a Healthy Workplace" campaign with Ulsan Metropolitan City Nam-gu Public Health Center to prevent and manage job-related stress among employees at the Ulsan plant.


Taekwang Industrial and Daehan Chemical Fiber conducted a total of four sessions of the job stress prevention and management campaign at the chemical fiber and petrochemical plants. In particular, considering the smooth participation and convenience of movement for plant employees who cannot leave the site for long periods, four booths were set up in the dining areas within the plant. The campaign consisted of health promotion experiential education center consultations and worker health lifestyle practice education, targeting approximately 1,100 employees.


Notably, this campaign expanded participation not only to workers at Taekwang Industrial and Daehan Chemical Fiber's Ulsan plants but also to workers from partner companies to proactively prevent serious accidents caused by fatalities within the plant. The health promotion experiential education center operated four sections: "Smoking Cessation and Alcohol Moderation," "Oral Health and Nutrition," "Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease Prevention," and "Physical Activity." Through worker health lifestyle practice education, useful information was also provided to help prevent alcohol addiction and promote health management among workers.


Meanwhile, Tisis, Taekwang Group's infrastructure and leisure affiliate, offers healthcare massages and nail art services to manage stress for call center employees and operates a psychological counseling room to manage counselors' job stress. Additionally, Heungkuk Life Insurance, a financial affiliate, is reviewing various related programs to support healthy office work environments for its employees.



A Taekwang Industrial official stated, "This campaign has been a great opportunity to improve the health and job stress of employees at the Ulsan plant, and we will continue to develop and support various programs to manage employee health and job stress."
