Security and Protection

 

SKM values workplace safety. In 2020, we received the Excellent Unit and Industrial Safety Creativity Award of the 108th Annual Labor Bureau Labor Safety Award of Taipei City for our security and protection efforts. We initiate a risk assessment of workplace safety every year and invite labor representatives to participate, creating a safer and more comfortable workplace and establishing a Happy Workplace. To deepen and improve workplace safety, SKM has set the five core elements of evaluation and analysis, discussion, improvement, education and training, and promotion as security and protection guidelines.

Occupational hazard emergency response plan

 

We stipulated an occupational hazard response plan to ensure employees can quickly respond to operational hazards and minimize injuries. Execute occupational safety and health matters such as identification, assessment, and control of the work environment or operational hazards and emergency response measures according to the scale of the business unit.

Hazards
  • Generator oil leakage hazard.
  • Unusual fire of capacitors in the power equipment room hazard.
  • Electric shock from power operation hazard.
  • Falling during overhead work hazard.
  • Collapse of scaffolds five meters or higher hazard.
  • Unusual fire of equipment in the computer facility hazard.
Response Levels
Level 1

To quickly mitigate disasters, the store manager is the on-scene commander and executes emergency responses.

  • Small area accidents
  • Not life-threatening
  • No need for evacuation, but the scene of the accident must be controlled.
Level 2

The store manager is the commander-in-chief of the emergency responses.

  • Life-threatening
  • External support required.
  • Perform appropriate evacuation and control depending on the situation of the scene.
Level 3

The store manager is the commander-in-chief of the emergency responses and keeps in touch with the director responsible for the store.

SKM's Mid- to Longterm Occupational Safety and Health Management Goals

 

SKM's Mid- to Longterm Occupational Safety and Health Management Goals

Midterm Goals (2024~2025)

Longterm Goals (2026~)

  • Starting from 2023, HQ will guide each department store to use risk assessment to prioritize higher-risk areas and establish target management, feasibility evaluation, and regular monitoring of progress and performance.

  • Enhance internal audit activities by bringing HQ's Occupational Safety and Health Department into department stores for internal audits, strengthening training and audit experiences for lead ISO 45001 auditors, and gradually elevate the competency of department store OSH personnel in ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems.

  • Establish an online real-time incident reporting and investigation system to facilitate data storage, case sharing, and continuous improvement.
