Human Rights

Workplace Diversity and Gender Equality

Employees are important assets to enterprises. CSC has created a happy workplace, ensured a safe work environment, and protected employees' rights and interests systematically to attract and retain talents so that employees can fulfill their potential and develop their talents, all of which facilitate CSC to maintain its competitiveness. CSC has fully complied with the regulations of the Labor Standards Law and never employed child labor. According to the basic human rights of equal employment opportunities for all people, employees are hired solely on the bases of their professional capabilities and experiences and never on the bases of their races, thoughts, religions, political party orientations, places of origin, places of birth, genders, sexual orientations, marriages, appearances, physical or mental disabilities, or past labor union memberships.

Recruitment

There were 263 new employees in 2024, mainly from the southern region and aged between 20 and 30 ( 55%), which was a move to promote employment opportunities for local young people. In response to the wave of retirement, CSC has hired an average of 497 people annually since 2011. The voluntary resignation rate of new employees in 2024 was 6.84% (the number of voluntary resignations of new employees / the number of the total voluntary resignations).

To uphold the employment rights and fulfill social responsibility in regard to indigenous people and people with disabilities, CSC conducted special recruitment projects for indigenous people and people with disabilities. These initiatives aimed to support the employment of vulnerable groups and enhance their job opportunities.
