Ulsan City Holds Training Workshop for Child Safety Officers

Watching Activity Videos and Sharing Impressions

Ulsan City held the '2024 Children Safety Officer Workshop' at 10 a.m. on the 19th in the Citizens' Hall on the first floor of the City Council.

This event was organized for the first time this year to enhance the capabilities of children safety officers and to help children develop safety awareness from an early age. It is an occasion to further develop the children safety officer system that Ulsan City implemented nationwide for the first time last year.

The workshop was attended by about 100 people, including children safety officers and their parents, and included programs such as ▲watching videos of children safety officer activities ▲sharing activity impressions ▲chanting safety slogans and commemorative photos ▲virtual reality (VR) safety experience education.

Fifth grader Lee Mobin from Ujeong Elementary School and sixth grader Song Jiyeon from Myeongchon Elementary School will share their impressions of the activities, discussing the rewarding aspects of being safety officers and their hopes for Ulsan City.

Additional events such as a safety life photo booth and safety culture video screenings were also held.

An official from Ulsan City said, “Children can directly find and report hazards around their schools, thereby enhancing their safety knowledge and sensitivity, which improves their ability to respond to accidents.”

The children safety officer system, which was previously adult-centered, was expanded to include elementary school students in grades 4 to 6 and was first implemented nationwide by Ulsan City last year. Starting this year, the Ministry of the Interior and Safety is expanding the program to local governments nationwide.
