On the 22nd, Jeonbuk Special Self-Governing Province announced that it will actively promote the '2025 Industrial Accident Prevention Education Support Project' to enhance the safety capabilities of small-scale businesses vulnerable to industrial accidents. The province plans to fully support the education expenses for 200 workers from businesses with fewer than 50 employees.
This project aims to provide practical, integrated safety education beyond the legal obligation of education, free of charge, with the purpose of preventing work-related accidents among on-site workers. The education will be conducted at Samyoung Comprehensive Heavy Equipment Academy in Gunsan City, with a focus on crane rigging and other handling machinery operators.
The education is divided into three levels - beginner (S1), intermediate (S2), and advanced (S3) - based on the workers' skill levels. It is systematically structured to enhance risk response abilities through understanding work concepts and practical training at each level. The beginner course will be held over three sessions on June 26, 27, and 30.
Oh Taek-rim, the Director of Civil Safety at the province, stated, "This education holds significant meaning as a practical measure to prevent actual accidents in industrial sites," adding, "We will continue to provide support to create safer workplaces."
