1. Purpose
It is to control each process of production flow, and ensure the European RoHS directive can be completed so that our products can meet the directive requirements.
2. SCOPE
The procedure is applied to all products which export to European members.
3. Terms and Definition：
RoHS Directive： European issued 2002/95/EC directive on 27/10/2003 which is to restrict the use of hazardous elements Pb, Cd, Hg, Cr6+, PBB and PBDE in electronic and electrical products. The directive will be effective on 01/07/2006 officially.
4. Responsibility
4.1    RoHS Complementation Team is responsible to push and monitor the activities relative RoHS directive.
4.2    R&D department is responsible for RoHS product’s evaluation and their components coding, and for sample evaluation report stipulation and issue to relative departments.
4.3    Purchase department is responsible to select qualified RoHS vendors and prepare RoHS qualified vendors list and to purchase RoHS material.
4.4    QA department is responsible to control the incoming RoHS components and monitor its complement in process, and to evaluate RoHS vendors.
4.5    PE department is responsible to make RoHS products jigs and fixture.
4.6    Store is responsible to keep and mark RoHS materials.
4.7    Marketing department is responsible to communicate with customer about requirements for RoHS products.
5 RoHS production control procedure：
5.1    RoHS implementation team prepares any documents and work instruction relates to RoHS requirements, and is responsible to check the implementation of RoHS director. And RoHS team is responsible for all problems related to RoHS Directive.
5.2    Purchase department searches the vendors which are qualified to make proper RoHS director parts and arrange RoHS components and process evaluation. If the vendor is new, the evaluation shall be done as per Vendor evaluation report. The qualified one can be taken as RoHS vendor.
5.3     Purchase shall make “Qualified Vendors List” on the base item 5.2, and ask vendor to supply RoHS director compliance promises, and send to IQC for incoming material inspection.
5.4    、 Before RoHS material planning production and delivery, vendors shall submit RoHS director report No. come from third authoritative authentication agency to IQC, and otherwise Everwell IQC will reject the incoming material.
5.5     As per sample supplied by purchase department and vendor’s RoHS compliance test report, R&D department will evaluate the compliance of RoHS components.

If the material is not compliance with RoHS requirements, it shall be marked on “IQC Incoming Inspection Report” and submitted to MRB team for determination. If it is approved the contents of the hazardous elements in material is out of the range in “Everwell RoHS Directive Components Requirements Procedure”, the goods shall be returned to vendors.
5.7     After they receives qualified IQC inspection report for some RoHS materials, then store will transfer the goods to qualified store and mark them clearly and label RoHS on external box.
5.8     Production department shall set transfer store for only RoHS components to separate them from NON-RoHS parts. Production flow control carries out according to “Production Control Procedure”.
5.9    RoHS tools and jigs and equipment provided by PE shall be used in production and mark clearly to       make sure to separate from others. PQC shall monitor the compliance of the RoHS material and its jigs.
5.10    PE department is responsible to identify and make and maintain RoHS tools.
5.11    PQC will sample 5 kinds of material in each model in patrol check and QA samples 5 kinds of materials to check with its RoHS compliance report when patrolling the production, and record it.
5.12    Everwell RoHS marks shall be uniformed and so are all its vendor for RoHS materials.
5.13 The RoHS compliance report for all vendors is validity only for 2 years.
5.14 All Non-RoHS production and products will be banned by May 31, 2006. That is all production and products will be meet requirement RoHS directive from June 1, 2006.
5.15 MR is responsible to organize RoHS directive Implementation Team. Its responsibility is to make documents and plan related to RoHS directive and to monitor its implementation.
