According to this agreement, Hyundai Heavy Industries plans to establish a dedicated team within the safety department to provide safety management technology transfer and comprehensive consulting activities to external partners.
As a result, on-site safety management, which was previously limited to Hyundai Heavy Industries' internal workplaces, will be expanded to the block construction sites of external partners in Ulsan Ulju-gun, Pohang, Changwon, Mokpo, and other locations. This is expected to disseminate Hyundai Heavy Industries' excellent safety and health management system and further enhance the safety and health levels of partner companies.
In the future, Hyundai Heavy Industries plans to expand the support target to major external partners beyond the five companies that signed the agreement this time.
No Jin-yul, Head of Hyundai Heavy Industries' Safety Integrated Management Office, said, "We will do our best to establish a safety and health management system for partners to fundamentally prevent safety accidents," adding, "We will support necessary safety systems, procedures, and safety standards at each workplace and share excellent on-site cases as much as possible to contribute to the prevention of serious accidents in the shipbuilding industry."
