Equivalent to six 2-liter PET bottles. By turning off the shower one minute earlier, you can save this much water.  

It is estimated that a person needs to use at least 100 liters of water per day. In Taiwan, the daily domestic water consumption per person is 284 liters. About 40% of this is used for bathing, and about 20% for flushing toilets. The majority of water is used for “washing.” Leaving the shower running for 1 minute wastes about 12 liters of water, which is equivalent to six large PET bottles (2 liters each).  

Winbond aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, “Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all,” with the following achievements:

• In 2021, Winbond passed the ISO 14046 water footprint verification and introduced the ISO 46001 water efficiency management system in 2023.
• Winbond effectively collects rainwater and condensate as alternative water resources, using 1.83 million liters for irrigation and secondary uses by 2023.
• Winbond implements new water-saving measures annually, introducing six new measures in 2023, increasing water savings by approximately 390,000 cubic meters. From 2019 to 2023, the cumulative water savings reached approximately 4 billion liters.
• In 2023, the water reclamation volume reached 13.15 million cubic meters, with a fab-wide water reclamation rate of about 82.2% and a manufacturing water reclamation rate of about 90.1%, meeting the environmental impact assessment commitments of the Science Park.

In addition to average life expectancy, there is a more important measure called “healthy life expectancy,” which refers to the length of time an individual can live independently without needing assistance or care. Japan, with its well-established healthcare system, is renowned for its longevity. The combined average life expectancy for men and women is 84.2 years, making it the highest in the world and over a year longer than the second-ranked Switzerland (83.3 years). This longevity is attributed to the excellent hygiene and nutritional status of the Japanese population, along with advancements in medical technology.  

Winbond aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3, “Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages,” with the following achievements:

• Winbond’s medical office cares for employees’ re-examination status, achieving a 100% care rate.
• Sports promotion participation: 30,476 participants, burning a total of 10,362,995 calories.
• Employees enjoy seven days of LOHAS leave in their first year, with an 82% usage rate.
• Various diverse clubs have been established, with 34 registered clubs as of 2023.
• The self-funded group insurance plan covers employees, their spouses, children, and parents, with total premiums paid in 2023 amounting to NT$27,626 thousand.

The most representative greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide, along with methane and fluorocarbons.  

lobal warming is primarily caused by human activities, such as the extensive use of coal and oil as fuels, and the significant use of electricity and gas, all of which emit carbon dioxide, exacerbating global warming.  

Everyone on Earth has a responsibility to prevent further deterioration of global warming. It is not just the responsibility of governments or corporations; each individual must take action.

• Since 2006, Winbond has participated in the Perfluorocarbon Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Project initiated by the Taiwan and World Semiconductor Council, reducing approximately 2.28 million tons of CO2 emissions.

There are 617 million children worldwide who cannot achieve basic reading and math skills. Additionally, 1 in every 10 adults remains illiterate, totaling about 750 million people, two-thirds of whom are women. One reason is poverty, as many families cannot afford to send all their children to school, often prioritizing boys due to traditional gender biases.

• Educational Aid for Underprivileged Children: To support disadvantaged children and families with educational resources and stable schooling, Winbond has collaborated with the Taiwan Fund for Children and Families since 2017, inviting employees to participate in fundraising for educational aid. From the general manager to entry-level employees, everyone has enthusiastically responded. Between 2017 and 2022, a total of 5,366 beneficiaries received aid, with total donations amounting to NT2,146.4 million. In 2023, 1,023 children were helped, with donations totaling NT409.2 million.

In 2015, countries reached an agreement to establish the “Paris Agreement,” aiming to limit the global average temperature increase since the Industrial Revolution to below 2°C, ideally within 1.5°C. 

Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases emitted from various human activities. If economic development continues unchecked, the amount of carbon dioxide will keep increasing. It is estimated that by 2100, the global temperature could rise by up to 5°C.  

Winbond has implemented the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) framework to assess the risks and opportunities posed by climate change. A TCFD project team was formed, consisting of nearly 30 colleagues from 15 departments. Out of 35 climate risks, 7 major and 7 minor climate risks were identified, along with 5 major and 7 minor climate opportunities from 18 climate opportunities. 

Winbond aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13, “Take urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts,” with the following achievements:

• Zero days of production interruptions due to climate-related disasters.
• Since 2006, participating in the Taiwan and World Semiconductor Council’s Perfluorocarbon Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction Project, combined with company-wide carbon reduction activities, has resulted in a cumulative reduction of approximately 2.28 million metric tons of CO2e emissions, equivalent to the annual carbon sequestration capacity of 5,907 Da’an Forest Parks.
