Diversity and Inclusion
In Acer’s Standards of Integrity Management & Business Conduct, we emphasize the principle of “equal opportunity” in workplace policies, fostering a culture of diversity and inclusion and striving to build a work environment with equal opportunities. We maintain a non- discriminatory workplace and provide equal employment opportunities for both employees and job applicants, without discrimination based on race, color, genetic information, or any other characteristics protected by applicable local laws.
Workforce Diversity and Equal Opportunity
We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and equitable workplace that respects and embraces colleagues from different cultures and backgrounds. Internally, we continue to strengthen inclusiveness across gender, ethnicity, age, and functions. Employee composition data has been disclosed in Section 7.1 Employee Profile, and we will gradually expand the transparency of diversity indicators in future disclosures as appropriate.
Gender Pay Equity
We are committed to providing fair and competitive compensation without gender discrimination. In line with Acer Group policies, Acer Gadget reviews pay structures across job levels to promote gender pay equity. Gender pay gap data has not yet been disclosed; future disclosure will be considered based on data readiness and appropriateness to improve transparency and respond to stakeholder expectations.
Prevention of Workplace Harassment and Discrimination
Acer Gadget is committed to a respectful, inclusive, and safe workplace, with zero tolerance for discrimination, harassment, or misconduct. We have established Policy of Prevention, Correction, Complaint and Punishment of Sexual Harassment at Workplace as the basis for prevention and handling. Internal grievance procedures and confidential reporting channels are in place, supported by awareness campaigns and training to strengthen understanding of prevention and workplace diversity.
Promoting Multiculturalism and Inclusion
Acer Gadget continues to advance multicultural exchange and inclusion through:
● Diversity and Inclusion Training: Training under the Standards of Integrity Management and Business Conduct emphasizes the importance of demonstrating diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
● Awareness in Training: Manager training at all levels highlights avoiding bias and discrimination, including language and behavior during interviews.
● Development Opportunities: Ensuring equal access to skills training, career development, and promotion opportunities for all employees regardless of background.
● Harassment Prevention: A confidential reporting system is in place to ensure timely and fair investigation of complaints and follow-up improvements.
● Leadership Representation: Actively working to increase female and multicultural representation in decision-making roles, with regular reviews of progress.
Acer Gadget believes that diversity and inclusion drive innovation, competitiveness, and sustainable growth. We are committed to promoting multiculturalism through concrete actions and view inclusiveness as key to attracting and retaining talent. Although our workforce remains relatively homogeneous, we continue to strengthen cross-cultural exchange and will explore suitable indicators to enhance transparency and progress in a diverse workplace.
