Information on the Implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in the Republic of Korea emergency situations is not ensured as their accidents cannot be swiftly registered. ② The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) recommends people to refrain from using elevators in case of fire or earthquakes, however, for persons with disabilities using wheelchairs, among others, do not have any other alternative other than using the elevator at times of evacuation. As a result, they are defenseless and exposed to danger in emergency situations, such as fire and earthquakes. ③ The Initial Report does not admit the lack of a report registration system for persons with hearing or linguistic disabilities in times of crime or traffic accidents. It does, however, point out that there is currently no system to evacuate persons with physical disabilities in case of emergency in high-rise buildings. 2) Recommendation ① The government must come up with measures so that the report registration system in both public and private sectors that receive calls in case of emergencies, including the 112 Crime Report Center and private car insurance companies, can be improved and reports made through a preferred method of communication, including sign language or writing, by persons with hearing or linguistic disabilities in emergency situations. ② The government must build an evacuation system for persons with varying types of disabilities so that persons with disabilities can evacuate safely in case of an emergency, such as fire or earthquake, from buildings, including high-rise buildings.
