Busan Urban Corporation Conducts Safety Training Using Virtual Reality Content

Experiencing Various Types of Industrial Accidents Firsthand Using VR Content

Busan Urban Corporation (BMC) conducted a safety experience activity utilizing smart advanced technology, specifically VR content, for its employees on the 24th.

This training allowed participants to experience various safety situations that may occur in actual industrial sites through virtual reality. The purpose was to raise awareness of industrial safety and to assist with safety management tasks in practical work processes.

The experience was carried out through the mobile VR education program provided by the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency. Around 30 technical and administrative staff members participated, engaging with content that covered major types of industrial accidents in Korea such as working at heights (falls), equipment (collisions), materials (being trapped), as well as emotional labor in the service industry.

Employees who participated in the experience commented, "It was a valuable process that allowed us to consider the importance of safety by experiencing various types of industrial accidents in virtual reality that we had not encountered before," and added, "We expect it will be very helpful in our actual work."

Kim Yonghak, President of Busan Urban Corporation, stated, "We will do our best to strengthen employees' response capabilities and safety management skills by expanding experiential training courses for disaster situations that may occur on site."
