Note 1: Coverage rate = number of students who have completed training up to the current year / total number of students who should be trained in the current year x100%.
Note 2: The Career Development Program is a series of courses, and the training is conducted in stages depending on the target audience and completion requirements. Therefore, the coverage rate exceeds 100% because the series of courses are relevant to promotion, and employees complete the courses in advance to meet promotion requirements.



The Golden Tower Award in the Energy Saving and Waste Reduction Category of the Taiwan Continuous Improvement Activities Competition—New Hope for Taipei Prison

In 2021, we collaborated with Taipei Prison, which is under the jurisdiction of the Agency of Corrections of the Ministry of Justice, on the New Hope for Taipei Prison Regenerated Furniture from Wooden Pallets Project to provide employment opportunities for people released from prison and give back to society, as well as to fulfill our corporate social responsibility. In addition, we helped introduce the spirit and practice of Quality Control Circle in the process, with effectively increasing the wood utilization rate, improving product yield, ensuring quality, and shortening product manufacturing time as our objectives. The results of the circle met standards in 2021, which not only reduced the company’s waste disposal costs and CO2 emissions but also increased the revenue of Taipei Prison’s carpentry class, the income of those released from prison and their confidence in future employment. After the event ended, we continued to work with the institution on more programs.
