The previous day, President Hwang checked the operational status of worker convenience facilities, such as break rooms; the use of air conditioners; the provision of ice and bottled water; and compliance with the five major heat illness prevention guidelines (water, shade, rest, cooling equipment, and emergency response kits). He also reviewed on-site response procedures through a heat-related emergency drill.


SH provided cold drinks, snacks, and heatwave-specific supplies to support and encourage on-site workers affected by the high temperatures.


In addition, SH will support safety management at small and mid-sized sites where construction costs are less than 30 billion won. The company plans to distribute smart temperature and humidity sensors for heatwave monitoring and smart airbags for fall prevention as proactive measures against safety accidents on-site.



President Hwang stated, "During summer heatwaves, managing the health of on-site workers is of utmost importance. Please make every effort to strictly comply with heatwave safety guidelines so that all workers can work in healthy and safe conditions."
