Implementation of a Safety Workplace
Assessing Compliance to SHE Audit & Laws and Regulations
In order to respond effectively to SHE-related regulations and risks in the expanding global market, Amorepacific Group has established an advanced common management system at the Group level. We continue to monitor, evaluate, and improve SHE performance through self-audit of the business sites using SHE Standard, cross-audit of the business sites, and third-party audits through external specialized institutions.
Strengthening Safety Culture and Encouraging Members’ Engagement
Amorepacific Group is conducting various activities to foster a safety culture within its business sites. In order to enhance safety awareness and communication among all employees, we operate Occupational Safety and Health Committee, Council on Safety and Health, as well as our Safety Shinmungo reporting system as communication channels. Additionally, we facilitate a platform for regular sharing of safety and health issues with safety officers, allowing them to propose improvement ideas.
Strengthening Safety Management of Partners
Amorepacific Group continually makes efforts to establish healthy and safe workplaces for its employees as well as its contractors.
