Employee Welfare Plan

To attract and retain top talent, CWTC designs its compensation packages based on market standards, external competitiveness, and labor market supply and demand. We offer competitive salaries that comply with local minimum wage regulations and ensure no gender-based discrepancies.

The compensation structure includes fixed and variable components. Fixed salaries are adjusted according to market salary levels, educational background, work experience, and market surveys. Variable compensation consists of year-end bonuses and employee profit-sharing, which are distributed based on the Company’s operational performance and individual achievements. Salary and promotion adjustments depend on the Company’s overall business conditions, individual performance, the consumer price index, and government policies.

Performance Evaluation System

To effectively commend, reward, and motivate employees with outstanding performance, the CWTC Group conducts annual performance evaluations. Through two-way communication between supervisors and employees, we ensure the objectivity and transparency of performance evaluations. These evaluations serve as the basis for salary adjustments, promotions, training, and talent development. This approach effectively motivates high-performing employees and helps individuals identify their growth paths. Taking the Taiwan Plants as example, Taiwan Plant 1 conducts quarterly performance evaluations for direct labor employees, while indirect labor employees are assessed semi-annually, in July and December. At Taiwan Plant 2, quarterly evaluations are carried out for employees below the assistant manager level, and those at the assistant manager level and above undergo performance evaluations in August and the following February each year. In 2024, the overall performance evaluation coverage rate for employees at the Taiwan facilities reached 90%. In addition, annual career development assessments are conducted to ensure that all employees have the opportunity to fully realize their professional potential.

Employee Care and Benefits

To enhance employee engagement and ensure their rights, the CWTC Group has established a comprehensive benefits system and, in accordance with local regulations, has set up an employee benefits committee. This committee is responsible for managing and distributing the benefits funds.
