Sino-American Silicon Products Inc. (SAS) and GlobalWafers Co., Ltd. (GWC) have long promoted a friendly and equitable workplace through institutional measures, health initiatives, and everyday support. This year, both companies were once again honored by the Hsinchu Science Park Administration, receiving the Excellence Award for Promoting Workplace Equality for the third consecutive year. The recognition affirms their ongoing efforts in employee health, workplace safety, and diversity and inclusion, and reflects the tangible progress made in embedding respect and support into daily operations.
SAS and GWC provide comprehensive employee assistance and care mechanisms to ensure that colleagues receive professional support when facing emotional stress, family issues, or career challenges. Through training and open communication, SAS and GWC foster a culture of respect where every employee, regardless of background, can work in an environment built on equality and trust. In addition, the companies maintain clear and accessible grievance and communication channels, upholding a strict zero tolerance stance to safeguard workplace safety.
In terms of health management, SAS and GWC offer annual medical examinations, specialized screenings, and follow-up services, while organizing health seminars, first-aid training, and fitness initiatives based on employee needs. These efforts help employees build steady and healthy daily habits. The “7,000 Steps a Day” initiative, which combines wellness and community engagement, further transforms each step taken by employees into positive energy that contributes both to personal health and to society.
For employees who are pregnant or raising young children, the companies have established a comprehensive maternal health protection process that includes hazard assessments, physician consultations, flexible work hours, and health education. Supportive measures such as lactation rooms, maternity care kits, and designated parking spaces provide additional comfort and assurance throughout the journey of welcoming a new life.
SAS and GWC remain committed to creating workplaces where employees feel protected and valued. A friendly workplace is not a final destination but a continuous effort. Moving forward, the two companies will continue strengthening their actions in four key areas: health promotion, family care, equality awareness, and workplace safety. These efforts aim to ensure that every employee can work in an environment defined by stability, respect, and genuine support.
