Listening to the Voice of the Employee
HTC has nearly 2,000 employees worldwide, and the improvement of internal communication mechanisms has a significant impact on the company's operational growth. Therefore, HTC places great emphasis on internal communication and is committed to establishing a harmonious atmosphere of mutual trust between labor and management, ensuring the rights and freedom of expression of employees. HTC has established a fair system for handling employee complaints, and provides instant access to colleagues' opinions, such as via the appeal hotline, the appeal opinion box, appeal email, and a sexual harassment appeal email.
Labor-management meeting mechanism
HTC places great importance on labor management harmony. If there are any labor disputes, we conduct labor management negotiations in accordance with the law, and handle the dispute promptly and properly. At least 4 labor-management meetings are held regularly every year. The labor meetings consist of seven representatives selected by employees and seven representatives designated by the company, to discuss the previous unresolved cases and new issues, and invite relevant supervisors to participate. After the meeting, the minutes are posted on the internal website for employees to review the processing status. The most frequently discussed topics in collective meetings include: Work environment & Employee welfare.
Respect for corporate labor union rights
HTC has established the corporate labor union since 2015. We keep communication with members of the labor union and respect their opinions, and discuss employee feedbacks at labor-management meetings every quarter. As of the end of 2024, the corporate labor union has not proposed any demand for collective agreement.
Comply with regulatory requirements
When there are significant operational changes, we also comply with the norms of the Labor Standards Act. No cases of violations of the Labor Standards Act occurred in HTC in 2024.
Valuing Female Employees
HTC places great emphasis on the value of female employees in the workplace, and has established a corporate culture of gender equality by adjusting our service offerings and improving environmental equipment. We also promote physical and mental healthcare measures for female employees. The Mother Health Protection Plan kicked off in 2016 and covers pregnant women, mothers within the first year of giving birth, and mothers who are breastfeeding. The Plan made an inventory, underwent risk identification, and offers individual medical consultations, work adjustments and a reinstatement program following pregnancy.
