SAHTECH, SEMI, and Semiconductor Industry to promote "SEMI Safety Guideline" in Taiwan
{{date|April 2, 2008}}

{{2008 SecuTech Expo}}'''''"Localization of 'SEMI Safety Guideline'"''''', executed by Safety and Health Technology Center of Taiwan (SAHTECH) and supervised by [[w:Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International|Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI)]], was announced today in [[w:Hsinchu|Hsinchu]], [[Taiwan]]. 

This localization included several fields on health and safety of semiconductor manufacturing, certification testing on electrical devices, evaluations on fire or natural diseases, and environmental issues on semiconductor manufacturing devices, etc.. Companies and manufacturers from the semiconductor industry also paid more attentions on this guideline because issues on carbon-savings, earthquakes, fire diseases, and environment-efficiencies were included into this guideline.
{{Cquote|1=This [safety] guideline was originally promoted by SEMI since 1975 and was set up according to industry infrastructures in [[Europe]], [[United States|America]], [[South Korea|Korea]], [[Japan]], and [[Taiwan]]. Currently, its standards from the S1 to S25 was completely ruled by several world-class executives in semiconductor industry, and the S26 standard for [[w:Flat panel display|FPD]] industry, proposed in Taiwan, was also in several arrangements with the other countries.|4=Terry Tsao, President of SEMI Southeast Asia.}}
{{Cquote|1=The semiconductor industry is a high-value industry in every country. If a [[w:Semiconductor fabrication plant|fabrication plant]] (fab) was vandalized with fire or earthquake, how will a company decrease its lossless after a disease? As of some examples from the other countries, several companies didn't pay more attentions on devices' safety and finally got a damn trouble on counting lossless after a disease. By the way, voltages on electric using will take effect on energy especially the wasting of [[w:carbon dioxide|CO<sub>2</sub>]]. We [the semiconductor industry in Taiwan] hope this announcement will drive on global safety standards.|4=Fang-ming Hsu, Chair of ESH Committee of SEMI Taiwan.}}
{{Cquote|1=Generally, the designs of a fab will take effect on possibilities when a disease take place in, and its scale will chain much wasting on manufacturing devices and materials. For example, when using [[w:fluorine|fluorine]] in a fab, a company would consider using a gas tank car rather than a steel bottle. But due to environment and carbon-saving issues, some evaluations should be tested in a fab.|4=Frank Niu, Vice President of Administration of [[w:AU Optronics|AU Optronics Corp]].}}

On the other side of the incoming trade show of 2008 SecuTech Expo, scheduled after 2 weeks at [[w:Taipei World Trade Center|Taipei World Trade Center]], not only main fields on security devices, information security, and fire & disease preventions, the digital monitoring will be a hot topic in security industry. For applications on fire & disease preventions, because its issues contained industrial applications and ESH (Environmental, Safety & Health) managements, if a company want to decrease the ratio of fire disease or earthquake, companies from safety and related industries should pay more attentions on disease preventions.
