Safety and Health
Amorepacific considers the safety and health of our employees a top priority in all business operations and continuously works to identify and mitigate risks. To ensure compliance with safety and health regulations, we operate dedicated safety and health teams across our headquarters and each business site. Beyond regulatory requirements, Amorepacific takes a proactive approach by implementing voluntary safety and health programs that address potential risks and emerging issues in our workplaces.

Operation of Safety and Health Governance Structure
Amorepacific operates its Safety and Health Management Committee twice a year to review key safety and health issues and make structured decisions on improvements.
The Safety and Health Strategy Team establishes company-wide safety and health policies and, working with the safety and health units at each business site, conducts on-site risk reviews, oversees regulatory compliance, and leads accident prevention efforts. At its major production sites, the company operates dedicated safety and health units and maintains a voluntary safety management system that goes beyond legal requirements.
The company also helps suppliers strengthen their safety management standards through training and improvement programs, while reinforcing regulatory compliance and emergency preparedness across its global business sites. This framework allows Amorepacific to maintain a consistent safety and health management system across all business sites, including its overseas subsidiaries, ensuring the same standard of protection company-wide.
Safety and Health Management System Certification
Amorepacific maintains global certification for its safety and health management system. The Osan AMORE Beauty Park, Daejeon Daily Beauty production site, Beauty Campus Shanghai, and Daejeon COSVISION production site have remained certified under ISO 45001, reflecting effective safety and health management and a strong commitment to safety across the organization.
Amorepacific is dedicated to enhancing workplace safety by continuously improving its management system, conducting regular performance evaluations to identify areas for improvement, and raising overall safety standards.
Safety and Health Activities
Compliance Assessment to Prevent Serious Accidents
In 2025, Amorepacific carried out a ‘Serious Accidents Punishment Act Compliance Assessment’ across its major production sites. The assessment reviewed workplace practices that had become routine or overly procedural, with a focus on driving meaningful improvements. Through this process, a total of 211 hazards and risk factors were identified, and facility and process improvements were swiftly implemented to address critical risks and issues requiring on-site remediation. As a result, unnecessary repetitive work and gaps were reduced, enhancing the effectiveness of the management system and strengthening implementation at the operational level.
Accident Investigation and Recurrence Prevention
Amorepacific is continuously enhancing its accident response system. Amorepacific has established a strengthened reporting protocol that requires an initial report within six hours of an accident and a final report within seven days. For accidents classified as high-risk, the Safety & Health Center is directly involved in conducting root cause analyses. Any improvement measures identified through this process are incorporated into the company-wide Amorepacific Safety Rules and implemented across all business sites to drive continuous improvement.
Safety and Health Assessment of Contracted, Service, and Entrusted Suppliers
Amorepacific uses established procedures and criteria to regularly assess the level of safety and health measures implemented by its contracted, service, and entrusted suppliers.
Suppliers are classified into four categories: administrative service suppliers, low-risk work suppliers, general/high-risk work suppliers, and construction work suppliers. These safety and health standards are assessed during the contracting stage. Based on the assessment results, suppliers are assigned a safety and health rating, and contracts are signed only with those that meet the required standards.
Strengthening Fire Safety Through Proactive Prevention and On-Site Measures
Amorepacific takes a systematic approach to fire prevention as part of its efforts to strengthen fire safety. Across the underground areas of its major business sites—including utility tunnels, pits, machine rooms, and electrical rooms—the company has upgraded evacuation and alarm systems to enable rapid alerts and evacuation in the event of a fire.
To protect laboratory staff from sudden fires, the company introduced flame-resistant lab coats. During the winter, it also inspected heating cables and replaced aging cables. Together, these measures help proactively address potential fire hazards and strengthen emergency response capabilities at the operational level.
Operating Process Safety Management (PSM) Through On-Site Participation
Amorepacific systematically operates a Process Safety Management (PSM) program to prevent major industrial accidents in hazardous processes. Through PSM brainstorming sessions and a Management of Change committee, the company has established a participatory safety culture in which on-site employees proactively identify and address risk factors.
Emergency Preparedness and Response Training
Amorepacific Group conducted an emergency evacuation drill for all personnel at its headquarters, including employees of tenant companies.
Partnered with the Yongsan Fire Station, the drill involved approximately 4,000 occupants and simulated a fire scenario, incorporating both evacuation and rescue procedures. During the exercise, firefighters demonstrated suppression and rescue operations using an aerial ladder truck, while occupants practiced evacuation via emergency stairways to familiarize themselves with proper emergency protocols.
To address challenges related to limited evacuation space, a two-way messaging system was introduced to enable real-time tracking of each individual’s evacuation status.
Feedback from the fire department and employees is continuously reviewed and incorporated into ongoing efforts to enhance the Amorepacific Group’s emergency response readiness.
Establishing a Safety Management System for Overseas Subsidiaries
In line with its global business expansion, Amorepacific has established and operates a support system to strengthen safety and health management for employees working abroad. The company has designated safety and health officers at each overseas subsidiary to provide ongoing support. By analyzing the safety and health regulations of each country, it also identifies compliance risks in advance and provides guidance on improvements in areas requiring priority management.
AI- and Mobile-Based TBMTool Box Meeting Safety Training System
To make safety training more effective at worksites, Amorepacific introduced a TBM safety training system powered by a mobile app and artificial intelligence (AI). Using AI-powered speech recognition and a large language model, the system converts simple voice recordings of TBM sessions into organized digital records and generates safety training materials and key precautions tailored to each task.
Safety and Health Emphasis Week
Amorepacific carries out a range of activities to build a safety culture across its business sites. In the first half of 2025, the company held a ‘Safety and Health Emphasis Week,’ with programs organized into four categories: emergency drills, safety training, safety culture activities, and safety experiences. The programs ran for up to three days and included not only Amorepacific employees but also employees of on-site suppliers.
