Hsinpu Chemical Plant Occupational Safety Enhancement and Innovation Project

Hsinpu Chemical Plant Occupational Safety Enhancement and Innovation Project
SDG 3 GOOD HEALTH AND WELL-BEING

Since 2020, Hsinpu Chemical Fiber Plant has been carrying out a project on elevating its occupational safety and health management. The scope of the project ranges from the modification of occupational safety and health organization to inspection, penalty and reward, and ultimately cultivating occupational safety and health culture.
1. Optimize Organization of Occupational Safety and Health 
Safety and health personnel at Hsinpu Chemical Fiber Plant originally stationed at the plant. Beginning in June 2020, each Business and division is to designate its own safety and health supervising personnel to be in charge of occupational safety and health under its jurisdiction. The aim is for facilitate self-management, and clearly define the responsibilities of all safety and health personnel.


2. Bolster Occupational Safety Capability, Focus and Strength
Occupational safety and health inspection is recalibrated. Between June and August 2020, the Company made on-site inspection at 14 units, checking 17 contractors and 51 construction assignments. The inspection targets high-risk operations involving fire, electricity, elevation, lift operation, confined space and civil construction.  
3. Contractor Construction Management System
(1) Occupational safety and health training for workers hired by contractors is now expanded to cover the individual in charge, supervisors and on-site workers.
(2) Construction equipment and machinery must be inspected prior to construction activities and in compliance with occupational safety regulations.
(3) Inspection of construction safety must be reinforced, such as personal protective equipment for workers and compliance with safety behaviors. 
4. Reexamine the Reward and Penalty System Related to Occupational Safety Violations. High Reward and Heavy Penalty should be in Place and Violations should be Factored into Annual Performance Review.
Penalty: Hsinpu Chemical Fiber Plant established rules governing occupational safety and health reward and penalty in 2018. The rules are amended to issue heavier penalty. In addition to fines, additional reprimands are included, such as additional training hours or deduction on performance review. 
Reward: As an incentive for occupational safety and health, rewards are issued based on the zero lost hours due to occupational disasters accrued by each unit based on the characteristics and number of staff at each unit. In 2020, Hsinpu Chemical Fiber Plant and Kuanyin Chemical Fiber Plant issued a total of NT$1.15 million as rewards for the efforts on occupational safety and health from all units. 
5. Enhance training for managers (on-site supervisors) at all levels and establish occupational safety culture.
In the past, occupational safety training targets occupational safety staff only. The current practice provides comprehensive training for the on-site supervisors (at division, plant or section level). The priority is to establish proper mindset to build the culture of occupational safety.
6. Overall Project Performance
Comparing to 2019, the number of occupational disasters dropped from 46 to 25 in 2020, which is a 45% reduction. Between July and December 2020, external occupational safety center conducted 9 on-site inspections in the coaching and implementation project for high-disaster and high-risk plants. They found no deficiencies and issued no fines.
