4)      Occupational Safety, Health and Environment Policy

        The Company is concerned for the life and health of all employees, including the environment and community. So, in order to clarify the practices and use them as a guideline for operation in safety, occupational health and environment to maximize the benefit, the Company has established the policy on safety, occupational health and environment at work as follows;

1)    Safety, occupational health, and environment is the responsibility of the employees at all levels to be taken seriously.

2)    Communicate and disseminate information and support operations on safety, occupational health and environment to create the right understanding among the operators, involved parties and stakeholders.

3)    Strictly comply with the laws and regulations on safety, occupational health, and environment as part of the work. It is everyone’s duty to be involved in safety operations.

4)    Take actions to ensure that all operations are safe, with a good working environment and suitable for employees, trade partners and the community.

5)    Strengthen good relations with the community and stakeholders both inside and outside the organization.

Target, accidents of employees to the strike must be “zero”:
In 2024, No accidents that cause work stoppages.

Performance in 2024:

1)    The Company established the Safety, Occupational Health, and Environment Committee in accordance with the Ministerial Regulations to set standards for the management of safety, occupational health, and the working environment B.E. 2549 (2006). Executives were appointed to represent employers and employees to represent employees to consider work safety policies and plans to prevent and reduce accidents for employees and third parties who come to work, and to promote and support safety activities and training, as well as appropriately organized activities promoting employee welfare
2)    The Company has focused on the main tasks and campaigns to promote and raise awareness for all employees in the organization to participate in safety and the environment by adhering to the principles of compliance with the requirements of relevant laws and customer requirements to ensure safety, occupational health, and the environment, as well as providing regular training on safety, occupational health, and the environment. Moreover, the Company allowed external agencies to assess whether safety and occupational health are carried out in accordance with the law or not, as well as monitor the corrective actions.

3)    The Company conducts fire drills on a monthly basis due to the impact on life and property for both employees and the Company. The drills provide employees with expertise, knowledge, and understanding in the use of firefighting tools and equipment, as well as processes that will help them work together in the event of a fire.

4)    The Company remains aware of and focuses on being free from an accident in various aspects, whether it is caused by working with machinery or by fire, which is an incident that has a significant impact on the Company, employees, and surrounding communities. In 2023, the Company reviewed and improved the safety work by conducting the 5S assessment in the organization in order to make the work area more pleasant and reduce the risk of accidents due to unsafe working areas. The assessment was conducted every month, and the results of corrective actions were monitored.
