HSE Management
Samsung Engineering's top priority is to bring safety to our employees, clients, suppliers, and stakeholders, and executes projects with systematic strategies. We are making every effort to raise employee safety awareness to establish a safe workplace.
Health & Safety Management System
OH&S(Occupational Health & Safety) management system is to provide safe and healthy workplaces, prevent work-related injury and ill health, and continually improve its OH&S performance.
In 2005, we first achieved the OHSAS 18001 certification, a private standard for OH&S management system. It has been converted and maintained to ISO 45001 standard established by the ISO(International Organization for Standardization) in 2020.

SAFETY AUDITS
Safety audits are conducted regularly to improve and standardize safety performance at every site, in every country we work in. Through this audit process, health and safety performance is quantified and then circulated throughout the company as "Best Practices and Lessons Learned Case Studies."
Advanced Incident Management System
We adopted an advanced incident analysis system to prevent incidents to conduct integrated management of safety statistics. In addition, the organization dedicated to incident management regularly collects and analyzes incidents and near miss cases occurring at the project sites in Korea and overseas and, in accordance with the results, establishes incident prevention measures and conducts a variety of company-level safety training and campaigns.
HEALTH AND SAFETY IN PRACTICE
The company strives to improve the health and safety performance of all project sites and offices. Routine assessments and training sessions are conducted to guarantee that our employees and subcontractors are safe and healthy.
Safety-Corrective Action Request (S-CAR) is a system used to create a database of HSE issues. Drawing on that database, construction managers can quickly address and resolve safety issues on the jobsite.
- Identify Safety Issue
- Submit S-CAR
- Correct Issue and Confirm
- Input into Database and Produce Hazard Forecast
- Analyze S-CAR and Share Results
The operation of the Daily S-Cycle helps the company practice responsible safety management. Assigning HSE R&R for each member of a project enables improving the quality of the site safety management.
Samsung Engineering developed 10 Safety Golden Rules based on the Zero Tolerance principle. Through the rules, Samsung Engineering prevents incidents in advance and creates the culture to help the employees proactively engage in safety management and voluntarily lead the culture aiming at preventing an incident.
In order to improve safety awareness, Samsung Engineering provides health & safety training to all employees and subcontractors.
