LG Uplus has developed an AI-powered risk assessment app for its field workers to identify potential hazards and take measures to mitigate them. The app, which is the first of its kind in the communication industry, uses artificial intelligence to analyze job sites and provide workers with a list of potential risks and recommended safety measures.

The company has also introduced a new training method using board games to improve workers' risk awareness. The app and training program aim to reduce accidents and comply with the Industrial Safety and Health Act, which requires employers to conduct risk assessments. LG Uplus plans to train 1,200 field workers and 200 contractors by the end of the year.
