Communication Channels and Grievance Mechanism

The Group's various plant sites have established a "Grievance System" to ensure a fair arbitration mechanism for employees whose human rights have been infringed upon. Inventec's "Global Employee Code of Conduct Management Measures" and "Employee Grievance and External Whistleblowing Management Regulations" explicitly encourage reporting any illegal or unethical conduct and outline disciplinary measures. The "Global Employee Code of Conduct Management Measures" also includes audit mechanisms, stipulating those violations of relevant regulations shall be handled in accordance with the "Global Employee Code of Conduct Management Measures" and "Personnel Management Measures" regarding punishments. Inventec protects whistleblowers from discrimination, coercion, reassignment, or other adverse treatment.

Employee Satisfaction Survey

In order to gain deeper insight into the core concerns of our employees and to enhance the employee experience, Inventec actively listens to the voices of employees and establishes policies to attract, retain, and develop outstanding talent, while continuously identifying areas for improvement. Through engagement surveys, we analyze employees’ work motivation and satisfaction, covering factors such as workplace benefits. In 2024, 83% of employees at the parent company participated in the survey, with 71% giving high satisfaction ratings. Inventec firmly believes that an increase in workplace satisfaction will drive talent recruitment and retention, boost productivity, and further improve overall business performance.

Human Rights Management

Inventec is committed to creating an equal and harmonious working environment. It is clearly stipulated in our policy that all factories around the world should treat all individuals equally, regardless of their race, social class, language, belief, religion, political affiliation, gender, marital status, and mental disability. We also invite our supply chain partners to join us to follow the same standards. We comply with and support the core principles of international norms and guidelines, including the Responsible Business Alliance Code of Conduct, the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the UN Global Compact, the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work, and the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, as well as relevant laws and regulations of the countries where we operate. Based on these, we have formulated the human rights policy, with a focus on 8 key issues serving as our major guiding principles, to ensure the protection of human rights.

Human Rights Due Diligence

Inventec conducts human rights due diligence every two years. The common industry-specific issues for this due diligence are identified by referencing and consolidating relevant international human rights standards, the Company's internal regulations and guidelines, and human rights issues of concern to peers and benchmark enterprises. In 2023, the due diligence targeted employees and suppliers, identifying and categorizing eight significant human rights issues. For each issue, potential adverse scenarios were developed, and the potential impact on the Company was assessed and prioritized to formulate relevant measures for high-priority issues. These human rights considerations have been integrated into the Company’s routine management practices. Please refer to Inventec’s 2023 Human Rights Due Diligence Report for details.

Inventec also plans to expand the scope of its human rights due diligence to include additional groups such as migrant workers, women, contractors, and local communities. It will also cover new business relationships, such as mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures, where human rights due diligence will be conducted as part of the evaluation process.
