OCI Holds Second Half 2025 Safety Meeting with Partner Companies
OCI announced that it held the “2025 Second Half Partner Company Safety Meeting” on the 10th at its Gunsan plant to enhance cooperation and and strengthen efforts to prevent serious industrial accidents
In line with its commitment to eradicating serious accidents, OCI organized the CEO-led meeting to explore preventive measures in collaboration with partner company representatives. The company has been hosting CEO-led safety meetings with partners biannually, and this session was further reinforced with a “Safety Capacity-Building Workshop” focused on serious accident prevention.
The event was attended by OCI Vice Chairman and CEO Yoo-shin Kim, Chief Safety & Environment Officer (CSEO) Seung-yong Jeong, executives and employees of the OCI Group, and representatives from more than 110 partner companies. The program included:
During the workshop, participants examined new approaches to managing high-risk factors and explored collaborative safety measures for key hazardous tasks at worksites. In particular, in-depth discussions were held on practical and actionable executive leadership practices required of both OCI and partner company management to ensure effective and timely prevention of major accidents.
In addition, the meeting provided updates on OCI’s ongoing support for partner companies in establishing occupational safety and health management systems. Since the first half of this year, OCI has been implementing tailored programs to assist partners in meeting the requirements of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act. The company will conduct final inspections by September and provide supplementary training to address any deficiencies identified. Moving forward, OCI plans to gradually expand the scope of this initiative to support more partners in building comprehensive safety and health management systems, thereby reinforcing mutual cooperation and sustainable growth.
Through this meeting, OCI aims to incorporate on-site feedback and concerns from its partners into practical safety measures and continue to explore ways to enhance partner companies’ safety capabilities.
OCI is also pursuing a variety of initiatives to establish a culture of safety and shared growth with its partners. These include monthly partner meetings at each business site to share updates on OCI’s safety and health activities, listen directly to partners’ opinions, and address concerns. Additionally, the company runs a “Safety Leadership Enhancement Project” to strengthen the coaching and leadership skills of site managers, helping to foster safer workplaces.
Vice Chairman Yoo-shin Kim stated, “At OCI, safety is our top priority in all management activities. We are fully committed to preventing serious accidents through close communication with our partners. We hope that this meeting will raise awareness of industrial safety among all participants and contribute to building safer workplaces by strengthening our collective safety capacity.”
