Occupational Safety and Health Management

Management Policy

Reason for the Issue's Importance

The Company's ability to operate steadily and sustainably depends not only on the support of its management and investors, but also on its employees, who are its most valuable core asset. Therefore, the Company places great importance on the safety and suitability of the working environment for its employees. It is committed to preventing occupational injuries and occupational diseases, thereby avoiding work-related injuries to employees during the course of their employment. Through the continuous enhancement of workers' safety awareness, a safe, healthy, and comfortable working environment is established to ensure employees' physical and mental well-being and the Company's sustainable development.

Impact

  • Economic Potential Negative Impact: Enhancing employee productivity and efficiency while reducing occupational accident compensation costs and losses caused by work stoppages requires investment in safety equipment, training, and compliance management expenses.
  • Economic Potential Positive Impact: By creating a friendly working environment, the Company enhances employees' willingness to remain employed, thereby indirectly promoting and stimulating the development of the local economy.
  • Environmental Potential Negative Impact: Possible air, water, and soil pollution, health hazards, and legal violations.
  • Environmental Potential Positive Impact: Continuous improvement ensures a safe, hygienic working environment for employees.
  • People/Human Rights Potential Negative Impact: Inadequate company management may lead to accidents, legal risks, and employee dissatisfaction. It may also result in reputational damage or violations of applicable laws.
  • People/Human Rights Potential Positive Impact: A sound occupational safety system not only reduces the occurrence of employee injuries but also helps maintain strong employee cohesion.

Policy/Strategy

  • Assign responsible units and provide adequate improvement resources, support their operations, ensure worker participation and consultation for continuous improvement, and oversee and support employee contributions to the effectiveness of the Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) management system.
  • The Company complies with applicable regulations and conducts safety awareness enhancement programs and occupational safety and health training.
  • The Company implements general periodic health examinations and health examinations for workers engaged in operations with special health hazards, and conducts walk-through workplace inspections.
  • Each plant establishes relevant regulations, including standard operating procedures for accident handling.
  • Utilize appropriate communication, guidance, and support to ensure internal personnel understand the importance of EHS management and its continuous improvement.
  • Protect workers reporting incidents, hazards, risks, and opportunities from retaliation.
  • Both operational sites have implemented the ISO 45001 occupational health and safety management system and obtained third-party certification

Goals and Targets

Using 2025 as the base year, the Goals are set as follows:

  • Short-term goal: No more than two occupational accidents per year.
  • Medium-term goal: No more than two major occupational accidents within three years.
  • Long-term Goals: Zero occupational accidents.

Management Evaluation Mechanism

  • The responsible unit periodically conducts hazard identification, risk assessment, and risk control for workplace environments and operational hazards in accordance with ISO 45001:2018 and TOSHMS standards. Unacceptable medium- and high-level risks are included in management plans to be reduced. Continuous improvement is achieved through internal audits and external verification to comply with regulatory requirements and ensure the effectiveness of the occupational safety and health management system.
  • Each Occupational Safety and Health Committee meeting is held every three months to implement and promote safety and health management initiatives. Based on the implementation results of the previous year's safety objectives, each plant formulates objectives for the following year, focusing on engineering controls, improving equipment protection, and, as the final administrative control measure, ensuring the safety of machinery and equipment procurement to prevent occupational injuries and avoid major accidents.
  • Quarterly joint cross-plant on-site inspections are conducted by the Occupational Safety and Health Office and the occupational safety centers of each plant. Any identified deficiencies and the corresponding corrective measures are reported to the President. For major occupational accidents involving hospitalization or other serious consequences, the responsible unit shall conduct self-management inspections at the department manager level (monthly) and the division manager level (bimonthly) within one year, starting from the month following the accident, with the results submitted to the President for review.
  • At the monthly company-wide objective management meeting chaired by the President, the previous month's occupational accident statistics analysis and corrective measures are reviewed.
