[Asia Economy Reporter Wondara] Woori Bank has installed facial recognition fever screening devices at its branches.

On the 25th, Woori Bank announced that it has introduced facial recognition fever screening devices at about 400 branches to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19).

A Woori Bank official said, "We prioritized installation at about 400 branches with a high number of visitors," adding, "We will consider installing them at other branches in the future."

Meanwhile, Woori Bank is operating a 'COVID-19 Crisis Response Task Force (TFT)' and proactively installed transparent partitions at all customer counters nationwide in April last year. The bank also regularly disinfects the interiors of branches and 365 automated teller corners.
