Chungnam Province has launched practical training for technical civil servants aimed at preventing construction-site accidents and strengthening on-site response capabilities.
On the 6th, the province held the training in the Gongju area, drawing 300 technical civil servants from provincial and municipal offices for a session on construction-site safety management and generative AI applications.
The program was designed to enhance accident-prevention skills and problem-solving abilities through hands-on, field-centered instruction as construction-site safety becomes increasingly critical.
It emphasized case-driven lessons at actual construction sites to maximize practical applicability.
Participants visited a road construction site in Gongju to observe the girder installation process—the key structural element that supports and transfers loads on bridges.
On-site explanations covered the girder installation sequence, safety-management procedures, and strategies for managing risk factors.
Trainers then led safety-management sessions that focused on real bridge-collapse case studies.
The program also included practical instruction on generative AI tools increasingly used in construction administration, aimed at bolstering technical civil servants' digital response capabilities.
The province expects the training to strengthen construction-site safety systems and improve rapid on-site response to disasters and accidents.
Kim Yong-mok Chungnam Province's director of the Construction Policy Division said, “As demand for safety management at construction sites rises, the on-site response skills of technical civil servants are becoming more important. We will continue to expand field-focused training and implement a range of programs to strengthen practical capabilities.”
