The Global Standard Management Awards, organized by the Korea Management Registrar (KMR), recognize companies and organizations that have demonstrated outstanding management performance and achievements across eight themes, including green management, quality management, safety management, carbon-neutral management, and win-win management. Among these, the Safety Management Award is given to companies that systematically respond to human and material risks that may arise during production and service processes, and that possess operational capabilities to minimize damage in the event of industrial accidents.


Hansol Logistics became the first company in the logistics industry to obtain ISO 45001 certification for its occupational health and safety management system in 2022. Since then, the company has enhanced its safety and health system under the leadership of the Chief Safety Officer (CSO). By establishing a collaborative framework between management and on-site teams-such as operating an Industrial Safety and Health Committee, conducting management safety tours, and supporting safety training for partner companies-Hansol Logistics has strengthened safety standards at logistics sites.


The company has also proactively introduced safety equipment tailored to the characteristics of its worksites, including an AI sensor-based forklift collision prevention system, radar-based access control monitoring, and fall prevention facilities. In addition, Hansol Logistics has implemented activities to protect the safety and health of its workers, such as the distribution of automated external defibrillators (AEDs), the adoption of smart airbags and bodycams, and the operation of employee health promotion programs.



A representative from Hansol Logistics stated, "The logistics industry is a field where unpredictable human and material risks are always present. This award is especially meaningful as it recognizes our safety management system, which is optimized for the unique characteristics of logistics sites. We will continue to spread a culture of safety management with the goal of creating a logistics environment free of accidents."
