Industrial Safety and Health Management System
Skylark Group has established a Health and Safety Committee, which conducts monthly risk assessments related to health and safety, discusses and examines issues and countermeasures through various monitoring activities with representatives from the company and workers, and reports to management.
In addition, each of our stores, factories and headquarters issues a monthly health and safety newsletter to raise awareness of the importance of promoting health and safety activities and to reduce accidents related to occupational health and safety, focusing on the elimination and reduction of potential risks through "risk assessment" and providing guidance mainly on the prevention of recurrences.
We are continuously improving our management system through internal audit checks and regular advice from industrial physicians and experts on potential risks to occupational safety in the workplace, which is useful for improvement measures.
Furthermore, in the process of asking suppliers to agree to our procurement guidelines prior to the commencement of transactions, one of the requirements is that they place the highest priority on ensuring the safety and health of their employees on the job and strive to prevent accidents and disasters.
