Support for Awarding Excellent Businesses at Green Grade Branches

The Sacheon City Public Health Center in Gyeongnam will conduct the '2024 Public Hygiene Service Evaluation' from the 13th of this month to June 13th to improve the hygiene management level of public hygiene businesses and enhance the quality of services.

The public hygiene service evaluation is conducted annually by alternating industries every two years. This year, it will target lodging businesses (156 locations), bathhouses (36 locations), and laundry businesses (47 locations).

An evaluation team composed of public officials and honorary public hygiene inspectors will conduct on-site inspections by visiting the businesses to assess the public hygiene services.

The evaluation items vary depending on the industry but are divided into three areas: general status, compliance items, and recommended items, with 30 to 39 items investigated.

This year, to prepare for the National (Disabled) Sports Festival held in Gyeongnam, lodging business evaluations will be conducted first, encouraging business owners to thoroughly manage hygiene and safety, eradicate overcharging, and provide courteous service.

Additionally, the evaluation results will classify the top businesses as green grade, excellent businesses as yellow grade, and general management target businesses as white grade. The corresponding hygiene grade certificates will be notified to the business owners and published on the website.

Furthermore, awards will be given to excellent businesses within the top 10% of the top-rated businesses.

A public health center official stated, “We expect the quality of hygiene services at businesses to improve through the public hygiene service evaluation and ask for the cooperation of business owners to ensure smooth evaluations.”
