Suwon Special City Conducts Risk Assessment on 37 Public Facilities

Suwon Special City (Mayor Lee Jae-jun) conducted a risk assessment on 37 public facilities.

From May to July, a specialized agency carried out risk assessment consulting on public facilities including subcontracted worksites, libraries, community service centers, and employee cafeterias. This effort supported departments facing difficulties in safety management expertise following the implementation of the Serious Accident Punishment Act.

'Risk assessment' is a core system for establishing a self-regulatory prevention mechanism in accordance with the Ministry of Employment and Labor's serious accident reduction roadmap. Through this risk assessment, Suwon City strategically identified and managed major risk factors that could cause serious accidents such as asphyxiation, fire and explosion, falls, and overturning.

Suwon City held the '2026 Suwon Risk Assessment Results Report Conference' on the 11th at the conference room of Suwon Agricultural and Fishery Products Wholesale Market, sharing the risk assessment results for 37 public facilities with approximately 120 supervisors and other personnel.

Suwon City plans to continue efforts to enhance safety awareness among supervisors and connect this to practical accident prevention.

A Suwon City official stated, "We held the results report conference so that supervisors can clearly recognize on-site risk factors and strengthen their capacity for serious accident prevention," adding "serious accidents can be prevented when obligations for safety and health measures under the Occupational Safety and Health Act are thoroughly fulfilled."
