at Worksites
Safety of our employees always comes first.
Safety and health regulations applied to our worksites are getting increasingly stricter as seen with the enforcement of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act, which places the responsibility and obligation of preventing industrial accidents on the CEOs. Against this backdrop, Samyang Corporation has reformed its safety and health governance structure and established safety and health management policies for each business division to ensure strict management of safety and health companywide and create a culture that promotes safety and health.
