Jinju-si Conducts Intensive Safety Inspections for Transition to Korea Safety System

Jinju City in Gyeongnam will conduct the "Korea Safety Transition, 2023 Intensive Safety Inspection" on a total of 104 facilities within the jurisdiction for 61 days from the 17th to June 16th.

"Korea Safety Transition" is a disaster prevention activity that has been jointly participated in by central government ministries, local governments, and citizens since 2015 to enhance citizens' safety awareness and to early detect and resolve risk factors throughout society.

During this inspection period, related organizations, safety management advisory groups, and private experts will jointly participate to focus on inspecting risk factors at 104 facilities in 23 sectors, including construction sites within the jurisdiction that require focused safety inspections in daily life surroundings and landslide-prone areas.

In particular, advanced equipment such as drones and facility-specific safety inspection guides will be actively utilized for inspections. Minor issues found during inspections will be immediately corrected on-site, and for facilities where serious defects or risk factors are discovered, safety measures such as usage restrictions will be prioritized, followed by detailed safety diagnoses and repair reinforcements as subsequent actions.

A city official stated, "We will do our best to preemptively eliminate risk factors through joint public-private inspections during the intensive safety inspection period," and added, "We also ask citizens to actively participate in spreading a safety culture and preventing accidents."

Jinju City plans to distribute safety inspection checklists so that household and multi-use facility managers can self-check safety regarding electricity, gas, fire, etc., thereby making safety inspections a routine practice to prevent accidents caused by safety negligence in advance.
