The purpose is to effectively prevent accidents of all kinds and implement measures to reduce occupational accidents. WE also participated in the Safety and Health Promotion Committee of Nanzih Technology Industrial Park and the occupational zone defense organization, created position for nurse in accordance with Taiwan’s regulations, and signed contract with physician of Kaohsiung Medical College to provide medical service in OSE.
We aim to reduce occupational accidents, thereby achieving the management goal of “zero accidents.”

Hazard identification, risk assessment, and incident investigation
OSE conducts hazard identification and risk assessment procedures for the operating environment, equipment, machinery, services, etc. every year, determines the risk level based on hazard severity, occurrence frequency and accident probability, establishes relevant management plans, and conducts immediate inspections for high-risk operating environments. Risk management and control measures are implemented to reduce all risks.
OSE identifies high-risk working environments, such as environments with ionizing radiation, noise, hazardous chemicals and dust. To track and ensure employees’ safety and health, we provide education and training, personal protective equipment and regular special health examinations for personnel working in these environments.
Enforce Work Safety Management and Prevention
In compliance with the contractor/internal construction management protocols, contractor/ internal construction management approach, and EHS and procurement management protocols, OSE regularly evaluates contractors quarterly to uncover violations and take immediate remedial action.
Healthy Workplace
Healthy employees are the cornerstones of success for any company. To ensure the health of our employees and prevent any occupational diseases, OSE formulated a health service management plan in compliance with the Occupational Safety and Health Act to continuously foster a safe workplace and safeguard the emotional and physical health of our employees. By promoting a healthy workplace, we hope to further improve our operational performance.
n terms of epidemic management, although the COVID-19 epidemic slowed down in 2023, various epidemic diseases still threaten people’s health. OSE continues to pay attention to changes in the global epidemic, keep abreast of the latest epidemic prevention information, and cooperates with the Occupational Injury and Injury Diagnosis and Treatment Integrated Service Center of Kaohsiung Medical University to discuss company strategies to effectively control the epidemic and maintain the health of employees in the factory.
