Occupational Health and Safety
In addition to cultivating outstanding talent, maintaining occupational safety is key to sustainable talent management. To prevent occupational safety incidents and reduce the impact of the suspension of unit operations on power stability, Taipower has established an improving occupational safety strategy within its Sustainable Development Plan. Taipower also set short- (2022), medium- (2025), and long-term (2030) goals to demonstrate Taipower's resolve in implementing a safe and healthy workplace.
Health and Safety Management Policies
The protection of human lives through occupational safety are Taipower’s highest priority. To ensure the safety of employees and operations, Taipower pursues a goal of zero occupational incidents to create a safe, healthy, and friendly workplace. Additionally, to minimize the occupational injuries of contractors, Taipower optimizes items related to health and safety management in its construction contracts and actively assists and supervises contractors in establishing and implementing their own occupational safety management mechanisms.In 2022, Taipower conducted about 821 health and safety-related advocacy meetings for contractors, with a total of about 29,074 participants.
Future Improvement Strategies and Methods for Occupational Safety
Taipower's occupational injuries in the past ten years may be categorized into three major types: contact with high temperatures, electric shocks, and falls. Further investigation suggest that most injuries are caused by a series of factors: not executing or implementing risk assessments, workers not following procedures during tasks or lacking crisis awareness, a failure to implement the three basic tenets of occupational safety on-site, changes in management, failure to comply with standard operating procedures when working, failure to use protective equipment, lack of horizontal contact, and failure to properly control entry and exit of personnel, etc. The improvements Taipower aims to make are as follows:
