IoT-based Construction Site Environmental Management System
We are efficiently managing noise and dust at our construction sites using IoT technology, with sensors installed in areas where there is noise and dust generation, transmitting data to PCs and mobile devices in real time. Immediate and effective responses, such as noise dispersion, equipment operation time adjustments, and dust reduction measures are taken. We actively work to minimize our environmental impact on surrounding areas by mandating the installation of IoT systems at all newly established construction sites in Korea.
Eco-Drive Campaign
Samsung C&T is leading the construction industry by implementing an Eco-Drive Campaign that reduces greenhouse gas emissions and conserves fuel, supported by the participation of all employees and stakeholders at Korean business sites. In 2022, the company expanded the ongoing Eco-Drive Campaign in collaboration with the Korea Transportation Safety Authority to include employees, partner company managers, and workers. Notably, Samsung C&T has proactively established “Eco-Drive Experience Zones” at its construction sites, and provides Eco-Drive training for equipment operators, going beyond regulatory compliance with voluntary reduction efforts.
Development of Partner Company Environmental Management Process
Samsung C&T incorporates environmental management activities into its partner company evaluations, utilizing these evaluations for regular registrations. A partner company environmental management process is designed to follow the PDCA cycle, enabling seamless communication and operation between on-site partner companies and environmental managers. Mandatory environmental management training for newly appointed partner company managers ensures that a comprehensive system for environmental management is in place at all levels. In addition, Samsung C&T identifies outstanding partner companies through a separate registration review for asbestos removal, waste disposal, and noise and vibration measurement-focused companies. This approach strengthens partnerships and promotes “collaborative environmental management activities” with partner companies.
