Optimizing Health and Safety Policy, Focusing on Systematic Risk Management, Safeguarding Employee Well-being

CLC established the EHS Promotion Committee in 2000 and implemented a health management system based on the ISO 45001 framework, covering employee healthcare and wellness with a focus on health protection, leisure and well-being, and physical and mental care.

In 2024, CLC enhanced its safety and health policy, establishing 3 core pillars: risk management, safe operations, and health protection. The policy is implemented through regular risk assessments, safety training, and equipment inspections to keep ensuring workplace safety. Employee health management and emergency response capabilities are strengthened through health examinations, consultations, and emergency drills, supporting the goal of prevention over treatment.

CLC safeguards employee well-being and workplace dignity by advancing occupational health and safety while embedding human rights into corporate governance. In 2024, the HQs Administration Division initiated the Human Rights Risk Identification and Due Diligence Initiative, formally launching HRDD^Noteat year-end 2025 to reinforce institutional enforcement and build a safer, fairer, and trusted workplace.

*Note: For the CLC Human Rights Due Diligence results, please refer to Ch5.1 HRDD in 2025 Sustainability Report.

Annual action plans are implemented by safety and health personnel, plant nurses, and occupational physicians at each CLC plant to advance health management and create a healthy workplace. By integrating health promotion and risk management, a comprehensive health protection system is established to ensure employees work in a safe and healthy environment.

Health Promotion Activities: 2030 Target for 2,500 Participants

CLC is implementing ongoing health promotion activities and enhanced care programs to advance workplace health, aiming for all sites in Taiwan to obtain the Healthy Workplace Accreditation form the MoHW. Short- and medium-term targets for participation have been set. In 2025, 102 health promotion activities and seminars were held, with 2,028 total participants.

Each CLC mill/plant has established an OH&S Committee comprising site supervisors, OH&S personnel, and other relevant staff. Labor representatives, elected by employees, accounted for 34%~65% of each committee and included production line workers, team leaders, section chiefs, TPM executive secretaries, and plant nurses. The OH&S Committee holds quarterly meetings to discuss and implement OH&S-related decisions and activities. CLC continues to support the implementation of ISO 45001 OH&S Management Systems at overseas sites. Main sites in China and Vietnam all completed, and Ben Cat Plant completed system implementation with assurance certification in 2026.

EHS Risk Assessment : 4,800 OH&S Proposals Received

CLC follows the ISO/CNS 45001:2018 management framework and PDCA cycle to establish EHS assessment criteria. Annual assessments of risks and opportunities are conducted, with improvement or control measures proposed and decided at management review meetings. Plant management representatives allocate resources as needed. When equipment or process changes, occupational accidents, or corrective actions for nonconformities occur, hazard identification and risk assessment are repeated.

To reinforce prevention, CLC monitors near-miss reporting and remediation via management systems to minimize emerging hazards. Concurrently, the proposal-based improvements system empowers frontline safety innovation, generating 4,800 safety and health proposals in 2025 with top-performing plants honored at the year-end conference.

In 2025, CLC Consolidated Company (Taiwan, Mainland China, Vietnam) recorded 28 employee disabling injuries and 1 occupational disease case, prompting immediate duty adjustments and specialized occupational health consultations. Safeguarding on-site contractor partners, CLC tracked 3 non employee disabling injuries in 2025, with zero occupational illnesses.

OH&S and Health Training Management

To strengthen real-time tracking of occupational safety and health regulations, CLC mills/plants implemented safety and health education and training plans. Employees participated in external seminars and training courses, while senior staff and external experts with practical experience in occupational safety regulations delivered lectures and conducted on-site diagnostics to enhance understanding of relevant laws and key implementation points. In 2025, the average safety and health training hours per employee reached 33.3 hours (Taiwan Parent Company); in the Consolidated Company, the average was 28.5 hours.

Cross-factory Audit and OH&S Rating

Each mill/plant establishes annual OH&S goals and performance indicators in accordance with the OH&S management system. The HQs Health, Safety & Environment Department conducts cross factory audits and annual mill/ plant ratings to monitor implementation, consolidates results for management decision-making, and sets goals and indicators for the following year. Dynamic evaluations foster cross division learning and strengthen the management system. Irregular inspections are also conducted at the factories in Vietnam, covering on-site 5S management, EHS controls, and safety systems, with overseas audits enhancing implementation. In 2025, the Taiwan Parent Company performed cross-factory OH&S audits on Corrugated Container Division at 7 mills and conducted annual OH&S rating on Containerboard Division, Household Products at 4 mills/plants.

Holistic Health: Cultivating Physical & Mental Resilience

Since 2021, CLC has published 40 articles in the Health Promotion Column of its Bimonthly Journal, focusing in 2025 on healthy nutrition, sleep quality, and stress relief. In 2025, 18 activities— including stress management courses and psychologist-led sessions—recorded 276 total participants. Practical stress relief methods were shared to support employee physical and mental health and improve quality of life and work efficiency.

Athletic Culture & "Three Highs" Chronic Disease Prevention

With increasing rates of dining out and sedentary lifestyles, unbalanced diets and obesity have become major health concerns, highlighting the importance of weight management. CLC promotes employee health through low-oil, low-salt meals, encourages exercise and healthy habits, and continues to subsidize diverse clubs. In 2025, 30 athletic clubs (100% of all Taiwan Parent Company clubs) covered hiking, running, and ball sports to cultivate an active workplace.

Aligning with national "Three Highs" (hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia) prevention policy, CLC monitors employee waist circumference and BMI as key chronic disease risk indicators and conducts annual follow-up analyses after health checkups. In 2025, 60.3% of Taiwan employees were overweight or obese, although decreased 1.3 percentage points from previous year, still exceeding the national average^Note, shows that risk control remains challenging.

*Note: According to the Health Promotion Administration disclosed in 2025, Taiwan's adult overweight and obesity rate reached 51.3% in 2020~2024.

Designating affected staff as a "Three Highs Risk Group," CLC provides targeted tracking, medical consultations, and lifestyle seminars on balanced nutrition, regular exercise, emotional health, sleep hygiene, and tobacco/alcohol avoidance. This reduces chronic risks—such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes—while strengthening autonomous health management.

Additionally, CLC conducts regular employee meal satisfaction surveys to optimize food quality and nutrition, implements cancer prevention and screening programs, and promotes influenza vaccination, delivering timely preventive care to optimize workforce health governance.

Enduring Health: CLC Digitalization Health Management Platform

Cultivating a healthy workplace, CLC deployed the in-house "CLC Health Management Platform" for real-time tracking of high-risk personnel, supported by plant nurses and occupational physicians.

Health Promotion Achievements Certi ed by 3 Major Organizations

We promote health initiatives and seminars on weight management, cancer prevention, and influenza vaccination, and enforced a smoke-free policy across all facilities. Preventive measures, including written assessments, were also implemented to address potential physical or mental harm during work, ensuring comprehensive protection of employee health.

Promoting work-life balance, CLC built fitness hubs across 11 facilities in Taiwan and subsidizes employee clubs and external games. Partnering with the Ministry of Sports' Calendar Platform since 2020, CLC fosters an active corporate culture.
