Diversity and Inclusion
Support employment diversity and equity with actions

- In terms of promotion, nationality is not a factor to be considered. Promotion is offered depending on management capability. There were 5 supervisors with foreign nationals in 2024.
Care for disadvantaged groups
- We pay special attention to employment for disadvantaged groups. The company retains a total of 7 mentally / physically disadvantaged individuals including 2 individuals with severe physical disability. In terms of proportion, our employees have 1.4% disability people, which is more than the mandatory employment 1.0% rate based on the “People with Disabilities Rights Protection Act.”
- In addition, the company also employs 5 financially disadvantaged employees, and this accounts for 1.1% of the total employee number. In the event the company needs extended working hours (overtime), such employees with urgent financial needs than those of other employees will be considered. Therefore, departments will be requested to arrange overtime for employees of this group to increase their income.

Migrant worker care
We comply with related labor laws from the International Labour Organization, the International Organization for Migration, various international covenants, and the Domestic Labor Standards Act. Starting in 2022, the company initiated a full-scale implementation of a” Zero Relocation Fee” policy for migrant workers. To protect migrant worker’s rights, related expenses incurred during the employment process such as domestic and foreign pandemic prevention expenses, domestic and foreign service fees, physical examination fees and residence certificate fees will all be assumed in full amount by the company. This not only releases migrant workers’ financial pressure when coming to Taiwan but also allows migrant workers to utilize these saved expenses to improve their quality of life as well as that of their families.
