Gogyeongae, Gwangju Seo-gu Council Member, "Subscribe to Event Insurance at District Office Level"

Resident Safety 'Top Priority'

Gwangju Seo-gu Council member Go Gyeong-ae (Hwajeong 3-dong, Hwajeong 4-dong, Pungam-dong) proposed the ‘Seo-gu Office-level Event Insurance Enrollment’ during the 3rd plenary session of the 2nd regular meeting of the 327th session through a ‘5-minute free speech,’ requesting the preparation of “specific and effective measures for safe event management.”

Various events have been held during the 8th local government term, but since event-related insurance is enrolled by individual departments or event agencies, problems sometimes arise during the compensation process.

For example, a resident attending a recent event held by a dong office was injured, but since compensation was processed through insurance enrolled by the agency, the administration was excluded from the process.

Because the administration is not a party to the insurance contract, it lacks information on the compensation procedure, making proper guidance impossible, which can lead to distrust in the administration.

Council member Go requested ▲ Seo-gu Office-level event insurance enrollment ▲ review of including event accidents in the coverage of the resident safety insurance ▲ and promotion of coverage details to residents during event management.

Council member Go said, “Since resident safety is the top priority of all policies and projects, please prepare specific and effective measures to ensure safe events,” and added, “I will stand with you all on the journey toward the spring of democracy we are walking against the unconstitutional and anachronistic declaration of martial law.”
