Safety & Health Related Indicators
Safety & Health Related Certification
With a high portion of clerical and sales employees, Coway tends to have a lower
industrial accident rate compared to other manufacturing industry companies.
However, at business sites which have a higher potential for safety accidents, such as Coway’s Yugu and Incheon plants as well as its R&D Center, Coway operates an Industrial Safety and Health Committee for each business site to respond to potential risks. At the same time, it
upholds rigid safety management standards by meeting the very highest re
quirements for renowned safety and health management system certificates. In
2015, Coway had no industrial accident case.
