The Outstanding Workplace for Worker Health Promotion Activities is selected by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency based on the Ministry of Employment and Labor’s guidelines, which evaluate companies’ health promotion activities. Celltrion received excellent evaluations this year for operating health promotion programs emphasizing communication.
Celltrion operates user-centered health programs that expand participation not only to its headquarters employees but also to partner companies and non-regular workers. Representative programs include the health promotion program ‘Celltrion Health Walking Challenge’ and ‘Heart Saver,’ which educates on cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the use of automated external defibrillators (AED).
Additionally, programs such as smoking cessation clinics to prevent workers’ cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases and posture correction education programs to prevent musculoskeletal disorders are in operation. Furthermore, Celltrion has received positive evaluations for various health promotion activities considering overall worker health, including nutrition programs for lifestyle improvement, operation of an in-house psychological counseling center, and infectious disease prevention activities.
Based on its experience in operating health promotion programs, Celltrion also won the grand prize at the ‘Occupational Health Best Practice Presentation Contest’ jointly hosted by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency and the Occupational Health Association in July last year.
