Gwangjin-gu (Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) has provided personal safety alarms to all community welfare assistants to prepare for dangerous situations such as random crimes.


The recipients are 373 community welfare assistants. These individuals, who identify welfare blind spots throughout the area, have raised concerns about the risk of unexpected accidents while visiting homes or patrolling.


In response, the district distributed alarms to ensure the safety of the community welfare assistants. This basic defensive measure allows them to call for help from those nearby in sudden crisis situations.


The device emits a powerful 130-decibel alarm sound, comparable to the noise of an airplane taking off, which can be heard over a wide area. Additionally, it is small and lightweight, making it easy to carry.



Mayor Kim Kyung-ho stated, “I hope this will help ensure the safety of the community welfare assistants who work on the front lines to eliminate welfare blind spots,” and added, “We will always prioritize the safety of our residents and continue to implement practical support measures.”
