Environmental Management Committee
Upholding the principle of “Regulatory Compliance, Pollution Prevention, Resource Sustainability, and Continuous Improvement," the Company's environmental protection management system follows the environmental management policy published by the Chairman and President. According to the existing organizational structure, the Company established the Environmental Management Committee in January 2020. The Equipment Director has been assigned as the environmental management representative who is responsible for matters including verify and promotion of environmental management operations; the Executive Secretary is served by the General Affairs Department and members of each department draft specific and feasible plans and work goals based on assessment results of risks and opportunities. These plans will then be executed and a meeting is held quarterly to follow-up the implementation process. The execution situation of the overall system is reviewed and corrected through an annual internal environmental audit to reach the goal of continuous improvement. The Taiwan Headquarters passed external certification for ISO 14001: 2015 in 2019, and through regular performance review of the environmental management system using the PDCA cycle, the Company lives up to its promises of green operations and sustainable growth.
