On February 27, the Korea Iron & Steel Association introduced that it had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for industry-academia-research cooperation to advance the security tradition within the metal {industry} with the Korean Society of Safety and the Pohang Institute of Industrial Science and Technology (RIST). The signing ceremony was attended by Kyungho Lee, Senior Vice President of the Korea Iron & Steel Association; Daljae Park, President of the Korean Society of Safety; Kwanhee Lee, Director of the Process Safety Research Center at RIST; and different associated officers.
This settlement was promoted to set up a security administration system tailor-made to the traits of the metal {industry}, which is a steady course of {industry} centered on excessive temperatures, heavy supplies, and large-scale gear. It additionally goals to lay the groundwork for collaboration amongst coverage, expertise, and on-site practices to forestall industrial accidents.
Under the settlement, the three organizations plan to cooperate within the following areas: ▲ sharing coverage, expertise, and on-site info associated to metal {industry} security; ▲ collectively working seminars, boards, and academic packages for industrial accident prevention; ▲ selling collaborative initiatives and joint analysis to advance security administration programs; and ▲ growing and supporting the on-site utility of AI- and data-based digital security applied sciences.
Kyungho Lee, Senior Vice President of the Korea Iron & Steel Association, said, “The steel industry is structurally exposed to a variety of risk factors, and the importance of building a preventive, data- and technology-driven safety system is growing. This MOU is significant because it establishes a cooperative structure in which industry, academia, and research institutions can leverage their respective expertise.”
He continued, “The association will actively gather broad feedback and needs from the industrial field, and provide robust support so that academic research outcomes and AI- and data-based safety technologies can be systematically disseminated across the industry. If a virtuous cycle that organically connects policy, research, technology, and field operations is established, the safety management level of the steel industry will be further advanced.”
Daljae Park, President of the Korean Society of Safety, remarked, “As the steel industry is a key national industry, its safety standards are directly linked to industrial competitiveness. I expect that this industry-academia-research collaboration will become an opportunity to establish a practical, site-oriented safety culture and to advance digital, preventive safety systems.” He added, “The Korean Society of Safety will actively contribute to industrial accident prevention and safety innovation based on scientific evidence and expertise.”
Kwanhee Lee, Director of the Process Safety Research Center at RIST, mentioned, “Through this MOU, we plan to further develop AI- and data-based digital safety management technologies and focus on demonstrating customized safety solutions in the field. Through mutual technological cooperation, we aim to raise the actual safety management standards in the steel industry and spread the resulting technological achievements throughout the industry in the future.”
The three organizations plan to use this settlement as a place to begin to generate tangible security enhancements within the metal {industry} and to repeatedly broaden cooperative actions to set up a preventive security tradition.
