POSCO puts safety and health at its top management value and is doing its best to build a world-class safety culture through voluntary employee-led safety activities. Based on the ideology that ‘the company is healthy when the employees are healthy’, we are focusing on occupational health work in three areas: health promotion, work environment, and disease treatment. ‘Establishment of a chemical management system based on the MSDS system for the correct use of chemicals’, which is the standard for creating a pleasant working environment, ‘Identification and improvement of hazardous factors through measurement and evaluation of the working environment’, ‘Investigation of harmful factors to prevent musculoskeletal disorders’ and management’, ‘resolving inconvenience from the user’s point of view of safety equipment and improving performance’, and ‘NSF A1’ food grade non-toxic certification, harmless to the human body, which is harmless to the human body. It is a safe cleaning agent that meets the standards of composition and guarantees health and safety at the same time, and can be used even in the current enforcement of the Severe Accident Punishment Act and the strengthening of the Industrial Safety and Health Act.
