Transparent and open evaluation system
We have an open and fair performance evaluation system. Through reviewing career development and after communicating with the immediate supervisor, each employee can set their annual performance targets. Performance evaluation will be conducted on these targets each year for the reference of salary adjustment, bonus distribution, and future promotion. In 2022, the percentage of employees who has been employed for 3 months receiving regular performance and career development reviews was 100%.
Employee Remuneration
We have established a comprehensive remuneration policy and framework and performance bonus regulations for salary employees based on their education, seniority (service length), experience, and duties in order to attract, encourage, reward, and retain outstanding talent. Besides ensuring no differential treatment of employees based on gender, we also meet the CSR employee safety and the Company’s regulations to maintain a reasonable and fair salary structure and thereby encourage employees to improve competence and create better performance.
We have introduced a reasonable performance evaluation system and combined it with promotion and rewards in order to reward or punish employees appropriately based on their performance. We have also established management regulations related to rewards and punishments and announced them on the EIP for employees to inquire and follow in order to provide them with a dependable system for reward and punishment.
In terms of the offers for employment, our pay standard for base-level employees is higher than that of the statutory requirements, and there is no gender difference.

Profit sharing is our basic commitment to employees. To enforce our profit sharing philosophy, we offer stock ownership, stock option, and year-end bonus systems. In accordance with Article 20 of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, “If there is profit, no less than 4% shall be appropriated as the reward for employees”. A performance bonus system has been introduced and bonuses are distributed based on the Company’s status of operations to reward employees for their efforts and performance at work.
Besides the said salary and rewards, to encourage employees to focus on the Company’s long-term operational performance to achieve the Company’s sustainable operations, we have also established the employee stock ownership trust (ESOT) to trust the management and utilization of the shares owned by employees to help the ESOT committee to accumulate wealth for employees and make the retirement life or resignation life of members more stable.
