| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 土木工程系土木與防災碩士班（碩士在職專班） === 104 === Industries and technologies have developed rapidly in Taiwan. The number of chemicals used in plants is considerable, of which 70,000 to 80,000 hold commercial value. The Ministry of Labor, Taiwan, thus issued an act, entitled, “Supplementary Existing Chemical Nomination” (S-ECN), and reported that more than 64000 types of chemicals are in use in Taiwan.
However, chemical management and emergency response in Taiwan remain problematic for various agencies and departments, and a governmental organization has yet to assume responsibility for these duties. In addition, coordination between governmental organizations remains nonexistent. This has led to disorganization regarding the responsibilities of chemical management and emergency response.
This study gathered references and information from Taiwan and other countries to identify a more effective approach to resolving these problems between governmental organizations regarding chemical management and emergency response in Taiwan.
Based on the study’s conclusion, we recommend that acts of chemical management become integrated, and that a single agency assume responsibility for an improved approach to emergency response. A central governmental committee should be established for gathering information, management, legislation, and in overseeing chemical management and emergency response.
