Hazards are prevented to create a safe and safe workplace for employees.
WT adheres to the occupational safety and health (OSH) policy of “protecting employees and preventing hazards”. It put in place an OSH system pursuant to the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Law, and appoints OSH managers, fire protection administrators, first-aid personnel, etc. In addition, an OSH Committee was established in accordance with the laws and regulations with members including OSH managers, heads of departments, supervisors, command personnel, OSH-related technical personnel, medical personnel engaged in labor health services, and labor representatives. The employee representatives account for 30% of the Committee members, and four meetings in total were held in 2022. Regular analyses are performed to identify potential risks and possible hazards of operations in the work environment. The work safety operation flow chart is reviewed for hazard causes, in order to classify possible hazards and prevent them so as to achieve the goal of zero disasters.
Facilities can not be activated until passing strict safety compliance assessment.
Before construction starts, WT always conducts a complete safety assessment, requires the signing of a safety and health commitment letter, and plans emergency exit routes instructions and indicators, fire protection facilities, surveillance equipment, fire and security alarm systems. User license will not be issued until all the specifications are met.
Zero accidents were recorded for three consecutive years.
In 2022, no disabling injuries were reported from any of WT’s operating bases in Taiwan. Therefore, the occupational injury deaths, disabling injuries, total case incident rate (TRIR), and lost time injury rate (LTIR) were all zero. No work-related injuries were reported among suppliers and contractors who worked in WT’s offices or logistics centers either, with thus 0 TRIR and LTIR.
Regular drills and training are held to strengthen employees’ safety awareness and crisis management.
In order to ensure that all employees are familiar with OSH laws and regulations and the company’s safety and health management mechanism, WT Taiwan regularly conducts safety-related training and drills. Refresher training is scheduled for OSH managers, fire protection administrators, and first-aid personnel in accordance with the laws and regulations.

Risk prevention has been properly planned with adequate security inspection measures.
Pursuant to fire protection laws and regulations, WT has installed adequate protective facilities in the workplace, divided fire prevention management into zones, and appointed responsible employees on each floor to conduct a periodic key-point inspection every month to prevent accidents from happening. Relevant persons are sent to participate in the fire drill and training held by the management committee every year to be informed of the Park’s emergency exit and evacuation plan. A third-party fire protection institute is commissioned to carry out maintenance and reporting, and a fire protection job assignment and drill is organized in March and July every year to strengthen all employees’ emergency evacuation and response capabilities. In 2022, a night-time security patrol routine by dedicated personnel was introduced to check that unnecessary power supplies and lights in the office are turned off at night. The three logistics centers (Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Shenzhen) have all completed the fire extinguisher demonstration and hands-on training, and conducted fire drills.
