This year's fourth typhoon, Danas, issued its land warning on the evening of the 5th, urging everyone to prepare adequately for disasters.

To face the typhoon, citizens must prepare disaster supplies such as sandbags, tape, dry food, and drinking water to minimize losses. If it's necessary to go out, it's recommended to carry raincoats and rain boots to avoid danger.

Disaster prevention measures are equally important, and citizens should clean drains, remove hanging objects, and check electrical and gas pipelines to prevent fire risks. Additionally, preparing a few days' worth of food and water at home is advisable. Be aware of relevant regulations when considering going out to avoid fines.

Regarding working on typhoon days, employers cannot forcibly require employees to work, but there is no explicit legal requirement stating that laborers are obliged to report to work on typhoon days; this depends on company policy. During disasters, employees can exercise their right to retreat, and employers should not consider this absenteeism.

According to disaster prevention laws, those who violate regulations could face fines, and failing to heed warnings while traveling could also have legal consequences. Protect yourself and prioritize safety!
