Employee Travel & Club Activities
Expatriate employee management
Since foreign employees account for 22.44% of the total employees, we must take care of these people who work hard in Taiwan. In addition to providing due insurance benefits, we also assist foreign employees in providing education and training before work, and have established a grievance channel for foreign employees as a bridge of communication with supervisors. When signing a contract with a foreign employee, we will comply with laws and regulations and internal regulations, and adhere to the principle of equal treatment, so that foreign employees can also enjoy the same social welfare protection as domestic employees. Through the management and assistance of foreign employees, the work can be more worry-free and the risks faced at work can be reduced.
Parenting leave
