Employees are the most valuable asset of the Company, and we attach great importance to our employees’ needs and rights. Therefore, we strive to create a fair, just, friendly and flexible work environment; this is consistent with MiTAC’s core values. According to this, various employee care related systems and measures.

MiTAC attaches importance to the mental and physical health of the employees. We have not only built safe and comfortable environments for workouts, but also conducted health checkups for all employees every two years. In 2022, 92.44% of the employees underwent the health checkup. Apart from basic checkup items, we provide items that are better than those required in laws and regulations to take care of our employees' health. Health checkups and medical services are provided by doctors designated by hospitals to assist the employees in controlling the overall status of their health and further preventing physiological issues.

The Company nurses will implement employee health grading management based on checkup results, and regularly follow up on and provide care to high risk groups. The Company also hires resident occupational medicine and family medicine specialist to provide regular one to one professional consultation service, assisting employees with more professional medical suggestions.

MiTAC focuses on the management of safety and health. With employee safety and health as the most important basis of the Company's operation, we have obtained ISO 45001 certified occupational health and safety management systems for our R&D headquarters and all factories, striving to provide safe, healthy and low-risk operating conditions and work environments to the stakeholders including employees, customers, suppliers, neighborhoods and communities. Moreover, we have established dedicated safety and health units and committees for each factory, with labor representatives accounting for more than a third of each committee. We also implement various management measures and comply with international standards. As a result, we have obtained the RBA certification for our production bases in Taiwan and China Regions. By employing the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle, we realize a culture of safety with "continuous improvement."

In 2022, all employees (including the Company’s employees and the contractors) were covered by the internal audited occupational safety and health management system, totaling 6,424 persons.

Of all employees covered by the system, the number of employees who had been inspected by external agencies was 5,639 (including the Company’s employees and the contractors) with an 87.8% coverage rate.

Providing workers with necessary occupational safety and health education and training is the responsibility of a company. Each year, MiTAC establishes health and safety educational training plans to cultivate employees on hazard awareness in work environment through educational training as well as the required concept and knowledge on EHS for disaster prevention. This is to ensure the operation safety and health of the employees. The training will be arranged according to the categories and requirements of training hours. The training includes:

To maintain work environment quality and operational safety in employee workplace, an occupational health and safety (OHS) committee has been established in each factory. It is composed of the occupational health and safety management personnel, every departmental supervisor / monitoring and command personnel, relevant technical engineering personnel and labor representative of a total of 45 persons. Among which, there is an OHS committee consisting of 16 labor representatives accounting for 40.2% of the workers participation ratio. The committee members also jointly provide suggestions on the Company’s draft occupational health and safety policies, and hold meetings at least once in three months.  Furthermore, they not only make sure that our work partners have fixed channels to voice their opinions, but also review, coordinate and suggest on occupational health and safety related matters. They even participate in investigations of internal occupational disasters and accidents, facilitating positive labor-management interactions. In 2022, there were 19 proposals for health and safety at the meetings in Taiwan Region, and improvements had been implemented.

If the employees have concerns or suggestions in regard to health and safety aspects, they can inform the labor representative member of the OHS Committee for raising the matter for consultative discussions and adjudication made by the Chairperson at the regular committee meeting. Or, when there are any suggestions of concerns by external related groups towards EHS management, the information received shall be recorded in the “Internal and external factory communications log” for discussions and handling during the committee meeting. The original proposer shall be informed of the handling results for the case, and the handling situation after the end of the case shall be recorded by the responsible department in the communications log. In 2022, a total of 7 cases were recorded in the internal and external factory communications log in Taiwan.

Occupational Disaster Statistics

For accidents that occur at the labor workplace, the department that is involved in the accident shall inform the health and safety management office immediately to initiate the handling and investigation procedures. Corrections and preventions are to be made according to the root cause factor of the hazard occurrence to guarantee the safety and health of the employees and prevent the accidents from happening again.  In 2022, there was a total of two false alarm incidents in Taiwan Region. With respect to the reason for the incidents’ occurrences, we conducted analyses and established corrective and preventive measures. Then, we assessed the effectiveness of the measures and continuously followed up on the improvement status.

Additionally, there were 15 accidents related to employee commuting before or after work. Hence, we have proactively planned to invite police authorities to provide traffic safety and defensive driving dissemination courses to our employees in 2023. We will also ask professional companies to conduct safety inspections on motorcycles that are often involved in traffic accidents. For the employees affected by disasters, we have established a follow-up and care mechanism for those injured or ill due to occupational disasters. Based on the degree of injury, we activate care plans to follow up on the employees’ recovery status as well as arranging and recording interviews with doctors. Once assessed as fit to return to work, we continue to follow up on the employees’ recovery from occupational injuries for different lengths of time according to the degree of the injury in order to ensure the employees’ health.
