Busan Port Authority (BPA) President Kang Jun-seok and other executives conducted a special safety inspection over two weeks on port cargo handling sites, construction sites, and passenger terminals.


The safety inspection included President Kang Jun-seok, the head of the management division, the head of the operations division, the head of the construction division, and the director of the port regeneration project team.


This safety inspection aims to reinforce safety awareness at port cargo handling and construction sites, which can become lax during the spring season, and to proactively check for any hazards at passenger terminal facilities expected to see increased visitors during the holiday season, thereby ensuring a safe Busan Port.

During the inspection period, the executives checked whether safety rules, such as the placement of guides when using forklifts at cargo handling sites, were properly followed and encouraged the on-site workers. They also visited construction sites, including pier expansion projects, to observe compliance with safety rules during concrete pouring operations and the placement of signalers.


Subsequently, they toured passenger terminals such as Busan Port International Passenger Terminal, Busan Port Coastal Passenger Terminal, and Yeongdo International Cruise Terminal, as well as nearby waterfront spaces, conducting safety inspections on facilities with good public accessibility and listening to difficulties related to facility operations.



Kang Jun-seok, President of BPA, stated, “The management will take the lead in efforts to create a safe Busan Port for both port workers and users.”
