Kumwell Corporation Public Company Limited is committed to managing the safety of its employees, contractors, visitors, and all persons who contact or visit the Company. To support this commitment, the Company has established the Safety, Occupational Health and Working Environment Committee (SH Committee), working together with the Health and Safety Department (HAS), to set safety rules, regulations, and manuals, provide safety training in various programs, and organize safety promotion activities aimed at preventing and reducing accidents. These efforts have been incorporated into the Company’s operational goals to ensure that all business activities do not adversely affect employees, communities, or any stakeholder groups. Accordingly, the Company has established a Safety, Occupational Health and Working Environment Policy, which is continuously reviewed and improved to ensure its appropriateness and effectiveness.
The Company places great importance on managing the safety and occupational health of employees, contractors, visitors, and all parties involved throughout the value chain. It focuses on accident prevention, the prevention of work-related illnesses, and the creation of a safe working environment through systematic and continuous implementation under a preventive risk management concept (Risk-based Approach). The operational framework is as follows:
1. Safety and Occupational Health Policy and Governance Structur
The Company has established a safety and occupational health policy as a fundamental basis for conducting its business. The Board of Directors and senior management play important roles in supervising, monitoring, and regularly reviewing safety performance to ensure that the Company’s operations comply with applicable laws, relevant standards, and good practices. The Company has clearly defined safety roles and responsibilities at all levels, from policy and management to operations, so that safety management becomes a shared responsibility across the organization.
2. Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
The Company identifies hazards and assesses risks arising from work activities across all operational processes. The severity and likelihood of each risk are considered in order to prioritize them appropriately. Risk assessments are reviewed annually or whenever there are changes in work processes, machinery, technology, or when accidents and near-miss incidents occur, to ensure that control measures remain appropriate and aligned with changing working conditions.
3. Risk Control and Prevention Measures
The Company establishes risk control and prevention measures based on the results of risk assessments, with reference to its risk classification matrix and appropriate control approaches for different risk levels. These measures range from developing safety-conscious work procedures to strictly enforcing compliance in high-risk areas. The Safety, Occupational Health and Working Environment Committee and relevant departments conduct inspections in risk areas in accordance with the Company’s control measures, based on the Occupational Health and Safety Management System standard (ISO 45001) and the Environmental Management System standard (ISO 14001), in order to prevent accidents and reduce the risk of injuries or work-related illnesses.
4. Incident, Accident, and Near-Miss Management
The Company has established procedures for managing accidents, undesired incidents, and near-miss events, including reporting and response processes. These are implemented appropriately, from root cause investigation and analysis to the determination of corrective and preventive actions, reporting of results, and continuous improvement. The outcomes are also communicated to build awareness and ensure timely responses to various situations.
At the same time, the Company monitors and evaluates safety performance through established key indicators and uses the results to continuously improve and develop its safety and occupational health management systems, with the aim of achieving safe and sustainable business operations.
5. Safety Knowledge, Skills Development, and Participation
The Company places importance on developing employees’ safety knowledge and skills by providing safety and occupational health training based on job characteristics and risk levels, including orientation programs for new employees. Safety knowledge is also provided to contractors and visitors, and additional training is arranged whenever there are changes in duties or work processes.
In addition, the Company promotes the participation of employees, contractors, visitors, and surrounding communities in creating a strong safety culture through communication, awareness campaigns, and by providing opportunities to report unsafe incidents or propose safety improvement measures on a continuous basis.
6. Health Surveillance and Working Environment Monitoring
The Company conducts health surveillance and takes care of employees’ well-being by arranging health check-ups based on work-related risk factors, as well as monitoring the working environment, such as noise, heat, and lighting, in order to prevent and reduce long-term occupational health risks.
The Safety, Occupational Health and Working Environment Committee (Safety Committee) consists of senior executives, employee representatives elected by employees, and representatives appointed by the Company. At present, there are two Safety Committees: the Bang Yai Factory Safety Committee and the Sai Yai Factory Safety Committee. In addition, subcommittees representing each department are in place to review policies and action plans, conduct workplace inspections and assessments, and report performance results to management accordingly. Each committee serves a two-year term and holds meetings at least once a month.
The Safety Department serves as the main unit responsible for driving all functions to carry out activities in line with the Company’s objectives, as well as collecting safety statistics to support continuous improvement and development, with the aim of providing employees with a good working environment and ensuring safe operations.
To identify and assess safety and occupational health risks in the workplace, the Company identifies hazards and prioritizes risk management actions. These are integrated into operational plans and aligned with the Company’s goals in order to control risks and support opportunities for improving the occupational health, safety, and working environment management system. The process is as follows:
1). Classification of Activities and Areas by Head Section / Supervisor
โRepresentatives of each department classify the work items under their responsibility, as well as the related activities and areas, and record the results in the form for classification of responsible work items, activities, and areas.
2). Hazard Identification
Department representatives review the classified list of responsible work items, activities, and areas in order to identify hazards for each item and record them in the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment form.
3). Risk Assessment
Department representatives evaluate all information obtained from the hazard identification process in order to determine the level of risk, using the criteria of severity of harm and likelihood of occurrence. The results are recorded in the Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment form, based on the following risk assessment criteria:
Level
Likelihood
Description
5
Very High
Occurs once a month or more, or is likely to occur almost every time.
4

The risk level is calculated as follows:
Risks and opportunities related to the occupational health and safety management system are assessed in accordance with the risk rating matrix as follows:
Score Level
Risk Level
Risk Management
20 - 25
VH : Very High
This level is unacceptable. Risk management is required, with close monitoring and control, or the risk level must be reduced as urgently as possible through the establishment of a management plan. The activity should be avoided if the risk has not yet been managed.
10 - 16
H : High
This level is unacceptable. Risk management is required, with close monitoring and control, or the risk level must be reduced as urgently as possible through the establishment of a management plan.
4 - 9
M : Medium
Risk control measures for the activity must be documented.
1 - 3
L : Low
No additional risk control is required, but monitoring must be maintained to ensure that existing controls remain in place.
4). Use the risk assessment results to implement risk management measures
The Company determines appropriate responses to risks by taking into consideration the nature of the risk, the required investment, and the expected benefits, in accordance with the following risk treatment approaches:
a. Avoidance
เThis refers to actions taken to avoid events that may give rise to risk. It is typically applied when the risk is highly severe and no feasible measures can reduce or manage it to an acceptable level.
b. Sharing
This refers to jointly managing or transferring all or part of the risk to an external person or organization to help bear the risk burden, such as outsourcing services to external providers.
c. Reduction
This refers to establishing management measures to reduce the likelihood of a risk event or to lessen its potential impact to an acceptable level. Examples include contingency planning, capability building, and the establishment of work procedures.
d. Acceptance
This refers to accepting the residual risk when it remains at an acceptable level, without taking further action to reduce its likelihood or impact. It is generally applied when the cost of additional risk treatment measures outweighs the expected benefits.
