Golden Brother International Co., Ltd. held the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Quarterly Meeting for June 2025 on June 19th (Thursday) at 3:00 PM. During the meeting, the overall progress and various execution results related to occupational safety and health were explained to the committee members.

After presenting the second quarter’s performance and receiving reports from committee members of each area, Chairman Dr. Wangen Lee particularly addressed the following matters:

The Occupational Safety and Health Committee has legally stipulated responsibilities, as outlined in Article 12 of the “Occupational Safety and Health Management Regulations.” Overall, these responsibilities mainly focus on necessary measures and protections against safety and health hazards. For safety, immediate hazards can be referred to in the 16 “Physical Hazards” listed in CNS15030; for health, which generally involves long-term hazards, refer to the 10 “Health Hazards” in CNS15030.

Employees are requested to review and understand the contents of the aforementioned “Physical Hazards” and “Health Hazards.” At the same time, they should remind migrant workers to comply with all occupational safety and health standards established by their employing companies, to avoid exposure or to handle such hazards with caution, and to wear the necessary protective equipment when required.

The company’s business nature focuses on introducing migrant workers and does not involve any manufacturing operations; therefore, it is not required to implement ISO14001 and ISO45001 certifications. Nevertheless, since most workers introduced by the company are engaged in factory production, it is still necessary to understand the basic contents of ISO14001 and ISO45001 in order to effectively communicate essential health and safety knowledge to migrant workers.

The designated fire safety managers for each company dormitory are responsible for managing their respective dormitory buildings. Therefore, each fire safety manager should further understand the actual conditions of their assigned dormitories and provide necessary recommendations to ensure the implementation of the company’s “Zero Fire Tolerance” policy.

In view of the regulations for “energy users,” Golden Brother must conduct internal reviews to achieve the goal of reducing carbon emissions by 1% each year. Starting in 2023, the company has also begun conducting greenhouse gas inventories to identify concrete opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, the company has not abandoned its plan to install solar panels at the Minghu Facility in Hsinchu, but will decide on implementation based on the government’s and the U.S.’s tariff policies, the estimated costs, and the potential payback period.

Previously, a list of items that should not be placed inside dryers has been distributed to area committee members and supervisors. All committee members are asked to help communicate this information to migrant workers to prevent accidental fires.

6. Regarding Encouraging Colleagues to Provide Suggestions on Occupational Safety and Health:

At the Occupational Safety and Health meeting held at the beginning of the year, colleagues were encouraged to provide suggestions related to occupational safety and health based on their job responsibilities or daily observations. However, no responses have been received so far. All committee members are kindly requested to once again encourage colleagues to contribute suggestions and ideas, or to propose more recommendations, so that our shared work environment can be further improved.

Chairman Dr. Lee concluded by reminding all area supervisors to ensure that drinking water dispenser test results are monitored promptly and that valid inspection reports are available for verification. Additionally, any leaks in dormitory facilities or rooftop waterproofing issues should be inspected and repaired as needed before the typhoon season.
