Gwonseon-gu Geumho-dong Encourages Sanitation Workers on Malbok

On the 12th, Geumho-dong, Gwonseon-gu held a meeting at a local restaurant to encourage sanitation workers on Malbok (last of the three hottest periods of summer).

The meeting was organized to express gratitude and encouragement to the sanitation workers who diligently clean every corner of the neighborhood like their own homes and help with difficult tasks during local events, and to urge them to pay special attention to safety as the risks of accidents due to heat during work increase with the long rainy season and summer heat.

Kim Hyung-kyung, the head of the sanitation workers, said, "I'm grateful that you regularly organize gatherings like this even though I'm just doing my job," and added, "Although it's a hot summer, I will overcome the heat with energizing food."
