The company was honored to be re-certified for the third time as an “Excellent Workplace for Employee Health Promotion” in the 2019 certification review, following its previous recognitions in 2013 and 2016.

This certification, jointly overseen by the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency, evaluates workplaces across eight comprehensive criteria, including the management of musculoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases, employee health protection and promotion programs, and labor-management awareness of health initiatives.

The company’s Safety & Environment Team implemented various programs such as musculoskeletal rehabilitation treatments, customized stretching routines tailored to specific processes, and education initiatives. In addition, cardiovascular health was addressed through non-smoking clinics, a smart working project, diabetes risk management, dietary improvement campaigns, and obesity management programs.

For mental health support, the company offered a mental health guardian program, stress relief programs, and specialized training for high-risk employees. Other notable activities included participation in the DY Occupational Health & Safety Emphasis Week, the Mobile Health Promotion Campaign, and recognition at the Industrial Nursing Best Practices Contest.

Out of 52 certified workplaces nationwide, only four companies in the Ulsan region—Hyosung, Kolon Industries, Kyungdong City Gas, and the company—received this distinction.

The company was awarded the highest score among certified workplaces in recognition of its proactive role in cultivating a healthy workplace culture through diverse and continuous wellness programs and employee engagement initiatives.

Finally, the Safety & Environment Team emphasized the growing number of senior employees and encouraged all staff to take a proactive interest in their health and actively participate in health promotion activities to build a healthier workplace together.
