At Samsung Semiconductor, we put environmental safety first. That’s why we provide our partners with human resources and materials to help create a safe work environment. The support we provide ranges from consulting services that help our partners obtain environmental certifications to offering stability to top suppliers by assigning the following year’s supplies in advance. And for occupational health and safety practices to take root throughout the supply chain, we also operate dedicated programs and offer incentives to our partners.

“Raise Your Hand” is both a program and a formal request. It signals the worker’s right to stop working when they sense danger, whether it’s a dangerous situation outlined in the Industrial Safety and Health Act or a situation they anticipate to be dangerous. When they raise their hand, production must be stopped immediately for the safety of the workers.
The “Raise Your Hand” program was launched in 2018. In the beginning, we continued to see safety issues surface at supplier sites without seeing an increase in “Raise Your Hand” requests. This was because the suppliers were concerned about production delays and loss in human resources, the workers were worried they would get pay cuts from working less, and we were concerned the program could be abused, creating inefficiency in the workplace. That did not mean “Raise Your Hand” should be discontinued.

We addressed these concerns by setting up
a compensation system for suppliers and workers in
January 2021 so they could take advantage of the “Raise
Your Hand” program without the fear of financial loss.
We also added a clause in the standard contract
protecting suppliers from any disadvantages that may
arise from stopping production. And we continued to
actively promote “Raise Your Hand” to all our suppliers
and their employees for the program to become
standard practice.
