USI cares about the physical health of employees. Therefore, we arrange complete health checkups better than the legal requirements for employees every year and follow up their health condition periodically. Additionally, we combine the environmental monitoring data of statutory special operations to identify the risk of potential health hazards and arrange special health checkups for employees exposing to noise, dust, n-hexane, ionizing radiation, and 1,3-butadiene in order to capture the health condition of employees and provide a reference for employees to implement self-health management to achieve the aim of “prevention is better than cure” and create a safe workplace environment. In addition, every month we arrange labor health service physicians to provide in-house service, free medical consultation, and health and new healthcare knowledge promotion. We also develop the awareness and execution power of self-health management in employees through various thematic health talks.

To prevent employees from missing the opportunity for in-time medical attention due to busy work, by effectively analyzing the physical and mental health problems of employees through interviews, we provide appropriate referral service. We also develop the awareness and execution power of self-health management in employees through various thematic health talks. Every month, nursing staff responsible for labor health service edit new health science knowledge, measure blood pressure and provide them with health instructions for employees across the plant. Apart from correcting their medical misconceptions, they enhance the employee’s intention in self-health management.

It is our obligation to ensure the quality of medical institutions providing the health checkup service to ensure the checkup results are effective and valid for reference. We select only checkup institutions accredited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and medics accredited by the Kaohsiung Department of Health. After the checkup, apart from explaining the results and giving health instructions and education to employees by health professionals, we enable employees to understand more about their health condition and promote health and acquire correct health care knowledge.

In response to the high likelihood of droplet transmission of COVID-19, we have established an epidemic control team to provide multilevel epidemic controls to prevent COVID-19 from spreading. Employees, visitors, and contractors are all requested to measure body temperature and report the contact history before plant entry. We also keep up with Taiwan CDC’s pandemic updates to provide rolling information for employees to feel safe and no worries in the workplace.
