[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Busan Port Authority (BPA) will conduct safety and health education on the 19th and the upcoming 21st at the Busan Port International Passenger Terminal to enhance safety awareness and prevent industrial accidents in the port industry for supervisors of companies related to the Busan port industry.


About 30 supervisors from companies related to the Busan port industry will participate in the training.


BPA prepared an educational program reflecting the characteristics of the port industry in consultation with the Korea Industrial Safety Association, an institution designated by the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and the Korea Port Training Institute (Busan Training Center), a specialized institution for port safety education and training.


This education is a measure taken in response to industry opinions that the safety training content outsourced by companies to external specialized institutions has been tailored to manufacturing or construction industries and does not reflect the characteristics of the port industry.


The training program is composed mainly of cases that may occur within port workplaces, including ▲ the roles and duties of supervisors according to the enforcement of the Port Safety Special Act ▲ matters related to port industrial safety and accident prevention ▲ emergency measures in case of accidents.



A BPA official said, “Customized safety education was conducted exclusively for supervisors of companies related to the Busan port industry, resulting in high participant satisfaction,” and added, “We will continuously improve the education curriculum through ongoing collaboration with related specialized institutions.”
