Yeongpung announced that on May 6 and 7, it held its regular monthly safety and health training at the Seokpo Smelter safety training center in Bonghwa-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do. The training was provided to employees at the Seokpo Smelter, with experts from the Bonghwa-gun Mental Health Welfare Center and in-house safety and health managers serving as instructors.

The key topics included mental health management for employees, such as prevention and coping strategies for stress, depression, and anxiety, as well as sharing on-site accident cases and measures to prevent workplace accidents. The training was conducted in a total of five sessions.

Under the supervision of the Bonghwa-gun Mental Health Welfare Center, the "Mind Safety Bus" was also operated so that employees could easily check their mental health status during work. Employees received mental health checkups at a mobile counseling center set up in front of the smelter's internal warehouse.

Yeongpung expects that this close-contact service will provide practical assistance, allowing employees to proactively manage their mental health issues and prevent workplace accidents caused by job-related stress.

A Yeongpung official stated, "The mental health of our field workers is a critical factor that directly impacts both their quality of life and workplace safety," adding, "We will continue to work closely with specialized institutions in the community to establish a safe and eco-friendly workplace where all employees can work in good physical and mental health."
