About 7 hours have passed since the accident.
For more information, we will connect with our on-site reporter to find out.
Reporter Min-Jun Kim, it's getting dark now, are the on-site investigations continuing?
<Reporter>
Yes, I am currently at the construction site of the low-temperature logistics warehouse in Wongok-myeon, Anseong-si, Gyeonggi-do.
Firefighters have already withdrawn after the workers were rescued.
Currently, labor inspectors from the Gyeonggi and Pyeongtaek offices of the Ministry of Employment and Labor are conducting on-site investigations.
Supervisors are verifying that the project was carried out according to the blueprint to determine the cause of the collapse of the structure in question.
We also check whether the supervisor has taken appropriate safety measures at the site.

There are repeated voices that we need to prevent such safety accidents, but accidents like this at the warehouse construction site are still continuing.

Yes, in December of last year, there was a similar accident at the construction site of the logistics center in Cheongbuk-eup, Pyeongtaek.
At that time, the concrete frame installed on the ceiling collapsed while five workers were covering the ceiling plate.
Three people died and two were seriously injured in the accident.
As a result of investigation by the authorities, it was revealed that it was a 'talent' caused by not properly connecting the concrete beams and columns.
In December of last year, there was an accident where a worker in his 60s who was installing a concrete structure fell and died on the 3rd floor of a new logistics center in Wonchang-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon, where SGC E-Tech Construction, the construction company of the accident site, was in charge of construction.
As similar accidents occur one after another, there is a high demand for measures to prevent recurrence.
