 ◯ As of 2021, the current status of the disaster safety industry in Chungbuk is as follows.

    - There are 50,321 businesses, accounting for 25.9% of all industrial businesses(19.5K) and 3.2% of the nation's disaster safety industry businesses(155.5K).

 ◯ Looking at the characteristics of the disaster safety industry in Chungbuk, it is judged that the competitiveness of the business scale is somewhat poor (low scale), but it is possible to secure competitiveness because it is growing rapidly (high growth) and is highly integrated (high specialization).

    - The BSQ for the Chungbuk disaster safety industry, which refers to the size of the business, is 0.89p, which is -0.14p below the overall industry.

    - The number of businesses increased by 678(20.6%) year-on-year, with the disaster recovery industry(128.5%, 871), other disaster-related services(24.5%, 166), and disaster response(22.1%, 150) contributing to the growth, while the natural disaster prevention industry(-10.8%, -73) and social disaster prevention industry(-64.3%, -436) did not contribute to the growth.

    - The NOHI index of businesses in the disaster safety industry in Chungbuk, meaning location specialization, is 0.28p, which is relatively specialized.

 ◯ If a particular industry grows rapidly (growth) and becomes more integrated (specialization), it is possible to improve competitiveness through realizing economies of scale, and only by reaching a scale above the appropriate level (scale) is it possible to secure R&D and investment capacity to respond to changes in market conditions and industry trends, so we have identified promising areas using the analysis results of growth, specialization, and scale.

    - Among the large categories, the disaster recovery and disaster response industries were analyzed to have comparative advantages due to their specialization and good growth.

      ∙ Disaster recovery industry(77.1p), disaster response industry(51.1p), natural disaster prevention industry(48.4p), other disaster-related services industry(46.4p), and social disaster prevention industry(31.9p).
