  "summary": "The Ministry of Employment and Labor has conducted a joint inspection of nine Ourhome factories nationwide, uncovering 92 safety and labor violations. The violations include failure to conduct safety inspections, illegal dispatch of labor, and operation of conveyor belts without proper safety inspections. The ministry has referred 13 serious cases for prosecution and imposed administrative fines totaling 86.30 million won ($62,380). Despite the two worker deaths in caught-in industrial accidents at Ourhome factories, the company continued using uninspected conveyor belts at other factories. The investigation also revealed violations of labor laws, such as illegal dispatch of workers and wage arrears. The government is treating the repeated fatal accidents at Hanwha Group affiliates with grave concern and urging fundamental reform.",
