The Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency presented the operational direction of the regional safety and health forum, while two local companies, Air First Co., Ltd. and SL Co., Ltd., shared best practices in safety and health management. Following this, Director Kim Kyuseok and Director Oh Kyuhun listened to opinions on supervisor-centered safety and health management practices, discussed ways to revitalize on-site safety and health management, and facilitated communication and exchange between the public and private sectors.

The event concluded with a '3-3-3 Activity' safety workplace performance. This performance embodied the participants' commitment to creating safe workplaces by having the three main stakeholders (employers, supervisors, and workers) manage the three major types of accidents (falls, entrapment, and collisions) through a triple system (risk listing, role assignment, and verification).

Kim Kyuseok, Director of the Daegu Regional Employment and Labor Office, urged, "For systematic supervisor-centered management to function properly on site, I hope that the management representative, who holds overall responsibility, will pay active attention and make efforts."

Oh Kyuhun, Director of the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency Daegu Regional Headquarters, stated, "We will work closely with the Daegu Office to provide the necessary information and support to workplaces in a timely manner."
