【People With Purpose】Fostering Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in the People With Purpose Workplace and Supporting Women in Tech through ERGs

Special Report on Sustainability
The mission of an organization is like the heart of a human body. It drives the organization to move forward. A company with meaningful visions and values charged with
meaning can inspire employees to value their roles and find a sense of purpose. Such deep connections can encourage higher levels of engagement and loyalty, and even significantly increase performances in the workplace.
At Wistron, we care about diversity, equity, and inclusion. In 2023, we launched our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Policy to direct the company toward a long-term 2030 goal. Four pathways were established: 1. foster a culture of DEI in the workplace; 2. outline a DEI training and development program; 3. facilitate ERG (employee resources groups); and 4. promote the core values of DEI to suppliers.
In October 2023, we held our first DEI training program at headquarters, hoping to raise employee awareness in diversity and inclusion through diverse information exchanges and interactive events. We believe that this can help employees appreciate and respect different backgrounds and characteristics as well as enhance the efficacy and results of teamwork.
Wistron also regularly evaluates a series of annual indicators to measure the impacts of these policies. Indicators include the percentage of female employees, the percentage of female employees in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) positions, and the percentage of female employees in management positions. These indicators speak to the progress of our DEI Policy and demonstrate our resolve to support and encourage women in Tech.
