According to the fire department, this on-site guidance and inspection was promoted to eradicate the practice of ignoring safety at construction sites and eliminate formal safety management. Education was provided to construction site supervisors and workers on ▲confirmation and guidance of temporary fire facility installation and on-site safety inspection ▲designation and deployment of fire watchers, measures to prevent sparks from welding work from scattering ▲recommendation to report in advance when performing welding and cutting work at construction sites ▲appointment of fire safety managers at construction sites and mandatory preparation of fire safety plans.



A fire official stated, "Due to the dry spring weather, even small sparks at large construction sites can easily spread into large fires," and added, "We ask not only site personnel but also workers to pay special attention and strictly follow safety rules to do their best in fire prevention."
