„ A typical Semiconductor Fab uses over 100 Electronic Specialty Materials (ESM) which include: Electronic Specialty Gases (ESG) Electronic Specialty Liquids (ESL) „ There are over 300 different Electronic Specialty Materials in common use. These have a wide variety of hazards, with many having multiple hazards. „ In some cases these are new materials which have limited data. „ These are supplied in a wide variety of packages ranging from small bubblers (50 gms) to large ISO containers (18,180 kg)

Gas ER, Aug 2005 – E. Ngai ChallengesChallenges

„ ER is a part time activity „ We cannot control the time, problem or location of the incident „ The cost for ER Equipment and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is significant „ Level of knowledge (Many new products and variety of hazards) „ Cultural (ER requires independent thinking and action) „ Experience (We don’t have enough incidents!) „ Systems to Overcome these issues Regular Training Procedures Standard Equipment Standard Phrases Mentoring Technical Support
