6.2 A safe and healthy working environment
Our hospital considers employees’ occupational safety, as well as their physical and mental health, to be fundamental elements for the sustainable operation of medical services. Adhering to the core principles of “prevention first, risk management, and continuous improvement,” we have established a comprehensive occupational safety and health management system dedicated to creating a safe, healthy, and resilient working environment.
Our hospital has legally established an Occupational Safety and Health Office as the primary management unit responsible for coordinating and planning occupational safety and health policies, conducting risk assessments, providing education and training, reporting accidents, and implementing follow-up improvements throughout the hospital. Additionally, an interdepartmental Occupational Safety and Health Committee has been formed, comprising senior hospital executives and representatives from relevant units. The committee holds regular quarterly meetings to review and monitor the effectiveness of occupational safety policies, address risk issues, and evaluate improvement measures, ensuring the effective operation and continuous enhancement of the occupational safety management system.
Occupational Safety and Health Committee
The organizational chart of our hospital’s Occupational Safety and Health Committee is as follows:
In terms of education, training, and enhancing risk awareness
Our hospital conducts annual occupational safety and health education and training courses for all employees. The curriculum covers a wide range of topics, including general safety and health knowledge, clinical operation risk identification, infection control, emergency response procedures, and chemical safety management. We also maintain a 100% completion rate for these training sessions. Additionally, personnel involved in specific hazardous operations and related duties, as mandated by law, are required to complete statutory professional training and certification. This ensures they possess the necessary professional knowledge and operational skills, thereby minimizing potential workplace risks.

Our institution annually organizes occupational safety and health training courses tailored to the specific risks and regulatory requirements of the workplace. The curriculum includes topics such as occupational safety and health management, workplace hazard identification, GRI 403 occupational safety and health indicators, prevention of workplace misconduct, and updates to relevant regulations. In 2025, we conducted two occupational safety and health training courses, with a total attendance of 1,538 participants and an aggregate training duration of 1,538 person-hours. Through ongoing education and awareness initiatives, we enhance employees’ understanding of occupational safety and health, improve their ability to identify risks, reduce the likelihood of workplace accidents, and foster a safe, healthy, and supportive work environment.
Regarding the management of operational environment monitoring
Our institution, in compliance with relevant occupational safety and health regulations, has established a regular environmental monitoring program, conducting operational environment assessments every six months. The monitoring covers key risk factors such as organic solvents, specific chemical substances, carbon dioxide concentration, and noise exposure to comprehensively assess the safety status of the working environment. Historical monitoring results from 2023 to 2025 indicate that all data met the applicable regulatory standards, demonstrating that our institution maintains stable and effective management of environmental risk control and operational safety, continuously ensuring that employees perform their duties under safe conditions.
In terms of occupational accident prevention and incident management
Our institution has established a comprehensive accident prevention and reporting mechanism, which includes real-time incident reporting, cause analysis, formulation of corrective measures, and subsequent follow-up and improvement processes. This ensures that all types of occupational safety incidents are managed systematically and continuously improved. Additionally, through regular statistical analysis of occupational accident data, we use these insights as a basis for risk prevention and system optimization to reduce the likelihood of similar incidents recurring. According to recent statistics, from 2023 to 2025, our institution maintained zero cases of occupational diseases, demonstrating the significant effectiveness of our overall occupational health protection measures.
Regarding the management of performance indicators
Based on the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) disclosure indicators for the healthcare industry, our institution’s Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) in 2025 was 1.39. This indicates that the overall frequency of occupational safety incidents remains at a low-risk level and reflects our institution’s continuous improvements in risk control and safety management systems.
Overall, through institutional governance frameworks, standardized education and training, regular environmental monitoring, and rigorous incident management mechanisms, our institution has established a comprehensive occupational safety and health management system. We continuously strengthen preventive capabilities through data-driven management and risk-oriented approaches. Moving forward, our institution will continue to implement intelligent occupational safety management tools and data analysis technologies to enhance risk prediction and real-time response capabilities. Additionally, we will deepen the safety culture and self-management awareness among all employees. This will transform occupational safety from a regulatory requirement into an ingrained organizational norm, further improving the safety and sustainable resilience of the medical work environment and steadily advancing toward the long-term goal of zero occupational accidents.
