Prevention and Treatment of Occupational Disasters |

In order to ensure the safety of the working environment, the company has established the "ESH Change Management Procedure". It first uses the "Environmental Safety Management Impact Consideration and Risk Identification Assessment Form" to conduct hazard identification and risk assessment, and then identifies the hazards according to the risk level matrix. Medium and high-risk projects are included in the feasibility assessment of goals/objectives, and annual improvement targets are determined based on "relevance" and "feasibility" assessments. After the improvements are completed, the person in charge of the occupational safety and health will conduct safety observations at work to reconfirm that the risk level has dropped to an acceptable risk level. In addition to routine risk assessments, when there are changes in any aspect of the factory including personnel, machinery, material, regulation, or environment, risk identification must be carried out in a timely manner, and environmental safety assessment improvement plans must be included when necessary. |
In addition, the Company encourages employees to pay attention to the safety conditions around them when working. In accordance with Article 39 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, when colleagues find that they are suspected of suffering from occupational diseases or physical or mental harm or other unreasonable circumstances, or the company has violated the Occupational Safety and Health Act and relevant safety and health regulations and other potential hazard factors, you can complain to the labor inspection agency or make improvement suggestions to improve workplace safety by notifying supervisors, employee opinions/grievance mailboxes, submitting improvement cases, etc. The company will not treat colleagues Any adverse consequences resulting from the foregoing conduct.
In 2023, 194 improvement proposals were raised, wherein 99 proposals involved in improvement of working environment, 44 proposals were related to energy conservation and reduction of waste, and 51 proposals required improvement in the area of occupational safety and environmental protection. An ESH management review meeting is held every year to review the effectiveness, suitability and continuity of the ESH management system. |
Management regulations have been established to govern the use of chemicals, which are subject to defined handling processes from purchase, storage, use to disposal. The “Safety Data Sheet” is available so that employees using the chemicals can fully understand their characteristics and hazards. For the hazardous operation of solvent and special chemicals and the operation involving ionizing radiation, appropriate PPEs are provided and respiratory protection devices are subject to tightness tests every year to ensure that they can be used normally.
The company regularly conducts labor working environment monitoring to understand the actual working environment of colleagues and assess their exposure status. We also arrange special inspections during annual health examinations to reduce the chance of occupational diseases. In addition, safety and health inspections are carried out regularly, safety and health management is implemented, and unsafe and unhygienic factors are proactively discovered.
