The Serious Disaster Penalty Act is a law that imposes an obligation on the management manager to ensure the safety and health of everyone who works in a business or workplace. Business owners, management managers, corporations, institutions, etc. are obligated to secure safety and health, and in violation of this, they may be punished in the event of a serious industrial or civil accident. In addition, if employers and corporations intentionally or negligently violate their duty to secure safety and health by introducing a punitive damages system, they will be liable for compensation up to five times the amount of damage.
