Explaining the poor environment of the construction site, Mr. A said, "I have to wait 20 to 30 minutes to go to the toilet on the first floor (to go to the toilet) while working on the 23rd floor."
A said that although the situation is different for each site, there are very few toilets, and most of them are located outside the shopping mall or on the first floor of the office. .
When the host asked if there is a toilet on each floor, Mr. A explained, "It varies from site to site. There are people who do the toilet in a corner that is mostly invisible, and there are people who do chores in the toilet section under construction."
Person A said, "This is a very serious case," and "(the apartment workers) seem to have dealt with it in such a way that 'if you bury it with cement later, the tenants don't know'."
He said he didn't think most construction workers would.
In addition, Mr. A also mentioned the harsh environment at the construction site.
"(In the field), facilities such as toilets and washrooms are very insufficient due to cost reduction. When workers ask for improvement, most of the management reacts negatively," he said. I think the responsibility for creating the structure rests with the management.”
He also argued that the problem of toileting for workers at construction sites is the same in any area, whether in the metropolitan area or non-metropolitan area.
"Construction worker treated like a human being" vs "It's obviously a mistake to not clean up the toilet"
On the other hand, the National Construction Labor Union (construction union) of the KCTU filed a complaint with the Ministry of Employment and Labor and Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) to the National Personnel Committee on the 26th for the expansion of convenience facilities at the construction site in relation to this 'bag for servings' incident. has filed.
He also claimed that the root cause of this incident was the poor environment at the construction site.

The construction union criticized this situation as wrong, but said, "There are not enough toilets at the construction site and there are many places that are far away. There are cases," he said, "so we can urinate like human beings."
He also emphasized, "Before treating construction workers as 'shameless and unscrupulous human beings', I want you to know that anyone who works at a construction site will have no choice but to be embarrassed because there are no toilets."
As a result of the construction union survey of 23 construction sites of Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) from the 23rd of last month to the 8th of this month, the average number of toilets and restrooms was only 2.5, and the number of washrooms, whereas an average of 172 workers were put in one place. was 1.7.
Accordingly, the construction union filed a complaint with the Human Rights Commission to revise the law to reflect this, requiring a rest room, a changing room, and a shower room to be installed at each construction site in each apartment building and a toilet on each floor of the apartment building under construction.
However, many netizens who watched the incident criticized the actions of some workers who shared the need to improve the poor construction site environment, but did not go to the toilet and clean up their toilets anywhere, and criticized that it was clearly wrong.
