Uiwang City Designates 13 Restaurants as 'Safe Dining' Establishments

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Seo Dong-young] Uiwang City announced on the 12th that it has designated 13 restaurants as "Safe Dining" establishments to help residents dine with confidence in response to COVID-19, with these restaurants adhering to everyday quarantine and prevention rules including mask-wearing.

Safe Dining establishments are restaurants that implement five key everyday quarantine and prevention practices: serving food using individual serving utensils and plates, maintaining hygienic utensil management through individual packaging and pre-positioned personal utensils, requiring staff to wear masks, conducting facility disinfection and providing hand sanitizer, and not reusing leftover food.

Restaurants wishing to be designated as Safe Dining establishments can submit an application with a commitment pledge to the Public Health and Sanitation Management Team. Staff will then conduct an on-site visit to verify compliance with designation requirements.

Restaurants designated as Safe Dining establishments will be provided with Safe Dining designation stickers, hand sanitizer, and food culture improvement supplies. Safe Dining establishments can be found on Naver, T-map (App), and the city website.

The city plans to implement follow-up management to ensure residents can dine with confidence, including canceling the designation of any restaurant that fails to comply with even one of the designation requirements through continuous inspections.
