Code of Conduct Training
To foster a culture of integrity, Inventec continuously utilizes systematic education, training, and awareness campaigns to ensure that all employees fully understand and implement regulations related to ethical corporate management. Upon onboarding, newly hired employees are required to sign the “Employee Code of Conduct” and complete online courses related to integrity and business ethics, thereby establishing proper ethical concepts and behavioral standards. Through regular promotion and re-signing of the “Employee Code of Conduct,” existing employees reinforce their awareness and commitment to ethical standards, ensuring that all employees adhere to self-discipline in their daily work. In 2025, the signing rate of the Code of Conduct among current employees at the parent company and plants in Europe and the Americas reached 100%. This demonstrates Inventec's strong commitment to ethical corporate management and underscores an organization-wide corporate culture of full compliance.
Mitigation for high-risk units
In accordance with the "Ethical Corporate Management Best Practice Principles" and the “Ethical Management Operational Procedures and Guidelines”, through the cooperation of various units, after the unit risk is assessed for the definition of improper benefits and also complete the self-assessment on a regular basis. Based on their respective responsibilities, the good ethics practice and legal compliance culture within the Company are strengthened in diversified ways. The coverage includes the Inventec Group to ensure that the company implements and follows the precautions set out in the Ethical Corporate Management Best Practice Principles. The main risks of the self-assessment are unfamiliarity with the statutory and corporate requirements, and the management is enhanced through training.
