HJ Heavy Industries' Construction Division announced on the 5th that it held a Safety and Health Advisory Committee Pledge Ceremony at the Namyeong Building in Seoul.

At the ceremony, nine partner companies appointed as advisory committee members, including the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency and ST Comprehensive Safety, attended. The advisory committee is composed of sectors such as △Safety △Health △Construction Machinery △Risk Assessment △Safety and Health Plan Review △Safety and Health Education. The nine companies pledged to closely cooperate in establishing a professional safety and health management system.

After the pledge, detailed measures to strengthen the safety and health management system were discussed, including safety and health professional support and collaboration plans for each partner company. HJ Heavy Industries plans to strengthen the safety and health management system by checking the implementation status semiannually.

HJ Heavy Industries has been conducting safety and health management activities across various fields. Every month, the CEO and all headquarters executives visit their respective responsibility sites to conduct safety and health inspections at construction sites and carry out monthly campaigns to foster a safety and health culture at construction sites. Safety and health meetings inviting representatives of partner companies are also held annually.

Thanks to these efforts, HJ Heavy Industries received the highest grade in the "Public Construction Safety Management Level Evaluation" announced by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in December last year. Notably, HJ Heavy Industries is the only construction company to have received the highest grade for two consecutive years starting from 2023.

Kim Wan-seok, CEO of the Construction Division, said, "We expect that the launch of the Safety and Health Advisory Committee will significantly enhance our practical safety and health management capabilities," adding, "We will continue to realize our zero-accident goal through close communication and cooperation with our partner companies."
