Occupational Health and Safety Management System

All factories of Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation's factories have successfully obtained certification for the ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management System. We are dedicated to enhancing our occupational health and safety management performance, continuously implementing the operation of the ISO 45001 management system, and adhering to regulatory requirements to establish a secure and healthy workplace. The occupational safety and health management system encompasses all workers,
including contract and dispatched employees, within the factory.

Equipment Security Management

From the source of new machinery and equipment, Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation has implemented management measures for new machinery and equipment by
standardizing management procedures. These measures include conducting safety risk assessments prior to procurement, performing safety inspections and acceptance checks by the Environmental Safety Department upon arrival at the factory, confirming equipment safety labeling with the user unit, and conducting regular safety inspections, repairs, and maintenance. Additionally, the Corporation provides regular education and training to systematically implement safety management in a systematic manner.

In 2022, a total of 1,283 units were inspected across the Group's four factories. The equipment in these factories, including the EMO emergency stop switch, safety interlock
protection device grille, and Interlock, were inspected by both users and environmental safety personnel. It was confirmed that all equipment was functioning properly before posting the equipment safety label was posted.

Chemical Safety Management

Since 2015, the Kaohsiung factory has implemented Chemical Control Banding (CCB) to evaluate risk levels associated with health hazards, dispersion, and volume of use of the chemical substance usage. Corresponding control measures are then implemented accordingly. Since 2019, the safety risk assessment on the source of newly procured chemicals substances has been enhanced through changes in management procedures. Vendors who are unable to provide a Safety Data Sheet (SDS) are strictly prohibited from proceeding with the procurement. This is to ensure compliance with laws and regulations related to occupational health and safety, and to prevent occupational accidents and diseases.

In addition, to prevent chemical hazards in the workplace, the Corporation has engaged a qualified environmental monitoring company to conduct biannual assessments of the working environment. The purpose of these assessments is to identify, evaluate, and mitigate any potential hazards present in the workplace, and to develop appropriate protective measures. These sessions focused on providing general knowledge about potential dangers and best practices for responding to emergencies.

Work Protection
Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation offers a range of personal protective equipment (PPE) to mitigate the risks associated with noise, organic solvents, and specific chemical hazards in the workplace. This includes earplugs/ear mus, respiratory protection, goggles, chemical protective gloves, and chemical protective aprons. By providing these items, we aim to minimize the potential for immediate and long-term exposure to potential hazards that could negatively impact the health and safety of our employees. We conduct personal protective equipment (PPE) training every year to enhance employees' understanding of the importance of protection against specific hazards. This is done to prevent the occurrence of occupational disasters and diseases.
 

Emergency Response Mechanism

Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation has established a series of emergency response procedures for emergencies such as fire, explosions, hurricanes, earthquakes, chemical leaks, accidents during the removal of hazardous industrial waste, air pollutants leaks, biotic contamination, illegal activities, unusual individuals and accidents, industrial safety accidents and etc. In case of emergency, the safety of human life is the first priority. Meanwhile, Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation regularly holds emergency response drills every year, there are also education and training on personal protective equipment, general knowledge of hazards, mechanical equipment inspection, contractor hazards notification, safety and health consultation meeting team, risk assessment personnel, fire training, emergency evacuation drills, etc., to enable all employees to be familiar with various contingency processes and be more awareness of crises. Each department is encouraged to organize their own evacuation drills, thereby strengthening the sensitivity of emergency response of relevant personnels.

On August 25, 2022, a joint fire drill was held between Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation and the managing unit's fire department at the Kaohsiung Factory.The objective was to ensure that our employees were able to participate in a complete emergency response process both inside and outside the factory.

Occupational Hazards

Radiant Opto-Electronics Corporation has implemented the "Occupational Accident Investigation and Handling Procedures." This comprehensive investigation procedure enables us to eciently investigate accidents, verify the facts and circumstances, determine the causes, and implement improvement actions in order to minimize the likelihood of recurrence.

In 2022, the Group experienced a total of 20 cases of occupational injuries. These cases were categorized as follows: 4 cases of falls, 9 cases of cuts/slashes/scrapes, 2 case of falling materials, 1 case of getting hit, 2 cases of falling/rolling, and 2 cases of collision. Fortunately, there were no fatal occupational accidents. Furthermore, there have been no reported cases of occupational incidents involving contractors from 2020 to 2022.
