Hanwha: Labor Ministry closes data center death investigation

South Korea's Labor Ministry closed its investigation into a worker death that happened in May at a Hanwha data center facility. The ministry determined that the incident was not a workplace fatality under the law, reported DART.

This determination means the incident will not count toward Hanwha's occupational safety record. It will not trigger mandatory safety audits that companies must complete after workplace deaths. Hanwha disclosed the ministry's conclusion through a regulatory filing—a proactive move to inform stakeholders about the incident.

Hanwha Corp. is South Korea's largest construction and engineering conglomerate. The company operates energy, defense, financial services, and materials manufacturing divisions alongside infrastructure projects worldwide.
