Introduction to KCs certification:
KCs certification is a safety certification issued by the South Korean Industrial Safety and Health Corps to ensure that special equipment, labor protection equipment, and protective devices meet safety certification standards. Special equipment is divided into several modes, including safety certification, free safety confirmation declaration, safety inspection, and free inspection program certification. Labor protection equipment and protective devices are divided into two modes: written review and product review.
Authentication mode differentiation:

Security certification (Manufacturer) |
Written inspection |
Review whether the design drawings and other technical documents of the type or type of machine, instrument, and equipment subject to safety certification comply with the safety certification standards |
||
| Technical capabilities and Production system review |
To ensure the continuous maintenance of the safety performance of the certified machines, instruments, and equipment, review the technical capabilities and production systems required in the factory to ensure compliance with safety certification standards |

| Confirmation review |
Confirm annually whether the manufacturer maintains the written review content, technical capabilities, system, production, etc. for safety certification |
|||
| Free Safety Confirmation Declaration (Importer, Manufacturer) |
Confirm whether the free safety confirmation object, machine, and instrument comply with self regulatory safety standards |
|||
| safety inspection |
Check if the safety performance of the machine, instrument, and equipment being certified meets the inspection standards |
|||
| Free Inspection Program Certification |
Negotiate between representatives of enterprises and workers to certify the implementation of free inspection procedures such as meeting inspection standards, inspection methods, and inspection cycles |
