Samsung E&C Group Workers Execute Right to Halt Work in Unsafe Situations
Samsung C&T Engineering & Construction (E&C) Group held a ceremony in March promising employees they have a right to stop working if they feel their safety is being jeopardized.
In the six months since the declaration was made, such a right was utilized for a combined 2,175 occasions at 84 worksites in Korea and abroad — a monthly average of 360 cases.
The Act on Industrial Safety and Health stipulates workers¡¯ right to stop working in the case they are in acute danger and a major disaster is about to take place.
The E&C Group enthusiastically guarantees the use of such a right, even when workers consider their worksites are in an unsafe environment or situation, not necessarily if there is acute danger.
Out of the total, 2,127 cases, 98 percent were in a situation in which necessary steps were taken within 30 minutes.
