Occupational Safety and Health

Nuvoton values talent as the cornerstone of sustainable development. Embracing a ''people-oriented'' approach, we prioritize talent cultivation and development. Our five core strategies—diverse strategies to attract talent, active cultivation and development of talent, superior retention system compared to industry peers, emphasis on and practice of workplace safety, and care for employees and encouragement of communication—are designed to foster a safe workplace environment, ensuring employees have a secure and healthy working environment.
The company follows the Labor Standards Act and other relevant labor regulations, and supports the protection spirit and basic principles of various international human rights conventions, including the "Universal Declaration of Human Rights" by the United Nations, the "United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights," and the "Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work" by the international labor organization. The Company places strong emphasis on the implementation of corporate sustainability principles and has incorporated sustainability development into the job competency framework of senior executives as one of the key performance evaluation indicators. Job competency performance indicators account for 20% of the overall performance evaluation weighting. Nuvoton further strengthens the promotion of its sustainability objectives by linking these performance indicators to the variable compensation of senior executives. Through this mechanism, the Company encourages management to actively implement its sustainability strategies and continuously enhance overall performance in environmental, social, and governance (ESG) aspects.
