Occupational Illness Prevention and Management

Special Operations that are Hazardous to Health

There are 13 statutory special operation sites at FPCC (dust, noise, high temperature, n-hexane, vinyl chloride, benzene, ionizing radiation, butadiene, dimethyl formamide, carbon disulfide, chromic acid, cadmium, and mercurate). Doctors will visit our sites according to the frequency required by the law, and will evaluate the health of employees performing special operations and the association with their work. The evaluations are jointly conducted together with supervisors, employees, nurses, safety and health personnel, and personnel representatives on site. We continue to prevent occupational illnesses through health examination follow-up, individual healthcare for employees, and operating environment and individual exposure monitoring. Overall results in 2022:

 

Comprehensive improvement of hearing protection

Personnel under level 4 management all engage in noise operations. The Company purchases low noise equipment and provides new personal protective equipment (3M Peltor integrated with Motorola connector) to prevent exposure during operations when personnel need to remove their ear plugs for communication.
