Korea Polytechnics is developing "three major safety content" utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to promote a culture of safety nationwide.


On March 18, Korea Polytechnics announced it would implement comprehensive safety culture policies based on AI technology in response to changes in the industrial safety environment, including the enforcement of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act.


The newly developed "three major smart safety content" consists of: ▲ safety webtoons ▲ safety training materials ▲ a collection of accident case studies. These have been designed for hands-on learning environments, enabling students to naturally internalize safety rules from enrollment to employment.

In particular, the AI-powered safety webtoon "Poly's Wise Safety Life" began serialization on the university's official social media channels in February. Featuring the university mascot, Poly, this monthly content initially focused on winter and holiday safety, receiving positive feedback from members. Future episodes will address seasonal risk factors and real accident cases.


Additionally, "Laboratory Safety Training Materials" for new students were produced using AI and distributed to campuses nationwide at the end of February. These materials emphasize the importance of safety rules at each stage before, during, and after practical training, as well as the necessity of wearing protective equipment, delivering these messages in an intuitive manner.


Furthermore, a data-driven "Accident Casebook" analyzing on-campus incidents since 2020 will be published in March. This casebook, which includes accident causes and measures to prevent recurrence, will serve as a core resource for autonomous safety activities and health education within the university.



Lee Cheolsoo, President of Korea Polytechnics, stated, "Safety must be internalized not as knowledge, but as a standard for action and judgment. Through AI webtoons and data-driven content, we aim to strengthen safety management capabilities in educational settings and create an environment where students can focus on practical training with peace of mind."
