DL, criticized for deferring safety management to subcontractors
SPC and DL presidents repeatedly apologize for repeated criticism
SPC Chairman Heo Young-in draws a line on legal responsibility
[앵커]
The presidents of DL and SPC Group, which had repeatedly suffered deaths of workers at their workplaces, were summoned to the National Assembly and criticized.
The two chairmen, who did not appear during the government audit last October due to overseas business trips, belatedly bowed their heads, but appeared to take a step back from the responsibility controversy.

Criticism poured in from the beginning of the hearing on the two chairmen who did not appear during the National Assembly audit last October, saying they were on a business trip.
In particular, structural problems such as poor investment in safety and long working hours were pointed out at SPC, where accidents occur repeatedly within the factory.
[이학영 / 더불어민주당 의원 : 방앗간보다 나은 정도로는 안 됩니다. 아무리 노력해도 사고가 날 수밖에 없는 구조가 있었어요.]
[이수진 / 더불어민주당 의원 : 이렇기 때문에 SPC그룹에 대해서 대한민국 국민들이 피 묻은 빵이라는 안 좋은 그런 상상을 하게 되는 겁니다.]
DL Group has been criticized for repeating accidents because it defers safety management measures at construction sites to subcontractors.
[윤건영 / 더불어민주당 의원 : 원청 책임과 업무가 굉장히 중요하다는 겁니다. DL보다 더 매출 규모도 크고 사업장도 많은 삼성물산이나 GS건설, 전혀 그렇지 않아요.]
There were also calls to come up with concrete solutions to industrial accidents rather than the abstract alternative of strengthening safety education.
[노웅래 / 더불어민주당 의원 : e편한 세상 아니잖아요. 이렇게 되면 정말 불편한 세상 아닙니까? 이렇게 큰 기업의, 우리나라에서 내놓을 만한 건설사에서 이러면 어떡합니까?]
The two presidents, who refused to appear as witnesses during the government audit due to overseas business trips, repeatedly bowed their heads and expressed their intention to apologize.
[이해욱 / DL그룹 회장 : 저희보다 현장 관련해서 안전을 생각하시는 것 같고 생각할수록 제가 너무 부끄럽습니다.]
However, SPC Chairman Heo Young-in drew criticism for drawing a line on legal responsibility, saying he was not involved in management.
[노웅래 / 더불어민주당 의원 : 경영에도 일부 관여하시면 중대재해처벌법의 대상인 것은 아시지요? 그건 아시지요?]
[허영인 / SPC그룹 회장 : 네, 그런데 제가 직접적으로 관여한 부분은 없습니다.]
On this day, the hearing was held in half, with People Power Party lawmakers, except for the ruling party secretary, not attending.
The opposition party argued that the meeting allowances of members of the Hwan-ro Committee who do not play a role should be cut, and the ruling party objected, saying that they did not participate because the hearing was not agreed upon.
