GREENING THE BUSINESS PARTNERS-
AMKORTECHNOLOGY PHILIPPINES
Case 1
I. BACKGROUND
Philippines
Established in 1968, grew to be the world’s largest semiconductor packaging and test company.
BACKGROUND
Its name Amkor was indicative of the countries from which its owners came, namely
America and Korea,
while its previous name, Anam, was coined from
“A” (for Asia) and “nam” (meaning South)
The company was widely known for its experience in technological IC packaging and was the acknowledged leader in this field.
It also fabricated semiconductors, packaged its own products, and designed integrated circuit for approximately 150 customers worldwide.
In 1956, its founder, Hyang-Soo Kim, initially incorporated the company in Korea as Anam Industrial Co., Ltd. And by 1968, the company began its semiconductor assembly business and established Amkor.
Its first US office was opened in Pennsylvania in 1970, but it was only in 1989 that Amkor Philippine site.
Amkor Anam’s services and products support all levels of electronics comprising
PCs/workstations, automotive/industrial component, office equipment, telecom/cellular/pager components and
other consumer requirements.
The company has always shown considerable interest and initiative to incorporate environmental management into its operations.
It initiated several reduction programs such as those for
chemical/water, solid waste, sludge. And so on.
For chemical/water reduction program,
the company installed a recycling plant for water from plating machines and also for the cooling water from dicing saw.
For the solid waste reduction program,
it started to recycle expired mold pellets and runners, and
succeeded in reducing a significant quantity of expired mold compounds.
The company reduced sludge generation by replacing chemicals.
Amkor Anam’s environmental initiatives were formalize under an integrated management system to ensue continuous improvement in its environmental performance.
This Environmental Management System (EMS) was established under the structure of ISO 14001’s system of standards, which had the following basic modules:
POLICYPLANNING IMPLEMENTATION AND OPERATIONCHECKING & CORRECTIVE ACTION/MONITORING
& MEASUREMENTMANAGEMENT REVIEW
The Environmental Policy of Amkor Anam reads as follows:
To improve the environment by striving to meet all
Relevant environmental regulations using Pollution
Prevention, Waste Minimization, and theConservation of Natural Resources as the bases
of ourenvironmental management programs.

Whenever the working committee met with the management team, in addition to presenting the action plan for EMS-related activities, the working committee always stressed the importance of involving the host community in its environmental program.
Reaching out to involve the Community in Greening the Supply Chain
Without their involvement, the committee felt that the effectiveness and efficiency of the company’s environmental program would not be successful.
Reaching out to involve the Community in Greening the Supply Chain
CLEAN UP OF PALIKO CREEK
Present at these meetings were the
Barangay foundation, City Planning and Development Office, LLDA (Laguna Lake Development Agency), Community Development Division, Environmental Sanitation Office, Lake Management Office and Amkor Anam.
Reaching out to involve the Community in Greening the Supply Chain
After a number of meetings, these groups and agencies,declaring their commitment to clean up the Paliko Creek,signed a manifesto that highlighted the following:
The designation of a permanent watcher and cleaner
The issuance of barangay ordinance creating rules against dumping and its corresponding sanctions
The fabrication of several trolley bins from scrap wood donated by Amkor Anam
The recommendation to monitor other companies that dumped wastes on the creek and to request them to develop their own cleanliness and environmental programs.
Reaching out to involve the Community in Greening the Supply Chain
Amkor Anam’s initiatives have met with many great rewards.
The company has saved a lot from its energy and water conservation programs.
Its production efficiency has also increased on account of EMS such that the company can now handle additional work for export to the US, Japan and Europe.
Net Effects
Regulatory risks have gone down and the company is always ready for inspection by government bodies.
Its environmental initiatives have enhanced its standing in the community.
Its environmental programs have brought different groups together to work for a common goal “thereby creating immeasurable goodwill and cooperation.”
Net Effects
