Establishing a Safety Ownership System to Prevent Serious Safety Accidents on Manufacturing Campuses

Huawei's manufacturing campuses are scattered across many locations and engage in a wide variety of business activities. To ensure safety responsibilities are fulfilled at all levels, we have established a safety ownership system where campus directors take direct responsibility for workplace safety. Each campus also has its own dedicated safety management team, which is part of our efforts to reinforce our safety organizations. In 2022, none of our manufacturing campuses experienced any serious safety accidents. This is attributable to the numerous actions we took last year. We further improved our manufacturing department's safety management system, released multiple safety management standards and specifications, and developed a smart digital safety platform. We also organized activities that promote proactive safety management and a culture of safety.

• Safety management system: Our R&D team and equipment manufacturers were tasked with meeting design for safety (DFS) requirements, and received targeted training to ensure intrinsic safety from the source. We also established a process system for managing the safety of manufacturing facilities, and released standards, guides, and checklists for design, construction, acceptance, and O&M.
• Smart digital safety platform: We developed a smart digital safety platform that is currently being trialed in multiple campuses, including our Songshan Lake Manufacturing Center and Tuanbowa campus. This platform connects directly to production systems, so that it can intelligently detect safety risks in manufacturing areas, monitor sources of safety risks in real time, and launch rapid emergency responses.
• Proactive safety management: We established dedicated safety management teams for each campus to help campus directors implement campus safety management requirements. We also released several safety management regulations, and organized fire extinguisher operation training and emergency evacuation drills.
• Culture of safety: We created a safety knowledge map covering all scenarios and objects of our business, and provided training for and certified 137 safety "golden seeds" who will continue promoting safety within their organizations. We held more than 40 training sessions where presenters shared their experience and insights in safety, and our Work Safety Month initiative had more than 100,000 enrollments. In addition, we provided timely incentive awards for individuals and teams that performed exceptionally well in manufacturing safety, contributing to a culture of safety.
