Responsible Mineral Procurement Management

ChipMOS Technology is committed to the management of conflict-free minerals and responsible procurement strategies. We have issued a responsible mineral procurement statement to meet the expectations of current and future markets, laws, and regulations. Grounded in corporate social responsibility and the practice of international justice, we actively comply with the Dodd-Frank Act of 2010 (H.R. 4173) to avoid the use of conflict minerals in our products and production processes, aiming for 100% procurement of conflict-free raw materials.

 

ChipMOS Technology expresses its concern regarding responsible mineral procurement and makes the following statement:

  • ChipMOS fully supports and responses to the boycott of conflict minerals, undertakes to comply with Non-Used Conflict minerals Policy in the RBA code of conduct,  We do not accept minerals (Gold (Au), Tantalum (Ta), Tin (Sn), Tungsten (W), Cobalt, and Mica) sourced from high-risk areas as defined by the OECD, or from the Democratic Republic of the Congo and its neighboring countries which to be used directly or indirectly to subsidize armed conflicts.
