Jeju Fire Department Issues Safety Alert for Haenyeo During Fishing Operations

The Jeju Fire Safety Headquarters will issue a safety accident advisory for haenyeo (female divers) during their operations on the 14th and will undertake thorough safety management.

The Jeju Fire Safety Headquarters plans to strengthen accident prevention publicity by issuing the safety accident advisory for haenyeo operations and spreading safety guidelines. At the same time, they will raise the level of response by establishing a cooperative system with related organizations and securing a prompt dispatch posture.

Additionally, they will promote the importance of first aid before the arrival of the 119 ambulance team and continue to provide on-site first aid training in collaboration with volunteer fire brigade professional instructors to improve fishermen's cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) skills.

Gominja, head of the Fire Safety Headquarters, emphasized, “Thorough preparation such as wearing safety gear and warming up is necessary, and during operations, it is essential to always work with colleagues for mutual safety.” He added, “Above all, it is most important to check your physical condition and avoid excessive work.”
