Gangseo-gu, Seoul, will conduct safety inspections and meal and hygiene checks at daycare centers in the district until mid-August.
This inspection is being carried out to ensure the safety of infants and toddlers by preventing food poisoning and other issues during the summer season.

Additionally, the district will support maintaining a safe and hygienic environment by distributing on-site response manuals, food poisoning prevention guidelines, and promoting proper handwashing habits.
