“Employee health” is a vital foundation for the Company’s sustainable development. A healthy workplace environment not only enhances employee productivity, morale, and satisfaction, but also effectively reduces workplace injuries and health risks, thereby improving the Company’s overall productivity and competitiveness. Coretronic aims for its employees to enjoy both physical and mental well-being as well as a joyful life. With the support of senior executives and employees, the health management team actively promotes various health initiatives, such as weight loss programs, metabolic syndrome prevention, and first aid training, to foster a friendly and health-conscious workplace.

Comprehensive Health Management
Annual Health Examination
  • Taiwan plants: The Company conducts annual health examination at a frequency exceeding regulatory requirements. In addition to legally required items, employees receive free screenings such as abdominal ultrasound, non-contact tonometry (eye pressure test), uric acid, alpha-fetoprotein (for liver cancer), and fecal occult blood tests. In 2024, the examination participation rate reached 99%. During the annual examination, employees are also given a “Personal and Work Fatigue Scale” to assess mental health. Based on the results, those with high work-related stress are invited to consult with medical staff for stress and overload evaluations. Employees with abnormal findings in certain items are immediately notified and assisted with referrals for early diagnosis and treatment, demonstrating the Company's strong commitment to employee health.
  • Wujiang plants: In compliance with RBA requirements, annual health examination was conducted for special operation personnel (e.g., forklift operators, electricians, low-voltage technicians). A total of 47 individuals were examined in 2024, and no occupational contraindications were found.

Annual Special Operation Health Examination
  • Taiwan plants: Tests included exposure to noise, ionizing radiation, lead, n-hexane, dust, cadmium, and nickel. All 72 required employees were examined, achieving a 100% participation rate. In 2024, one employee was classified at noise exposure Level 4. After consultation with an occupational medicine specialist, it was determined that the condition resulted from prior work in metal fabrication before joining the Company. Since no deterioration was observed compared to the 2023 examination, no further hospital follow-up was required. The employee will continue annual monitoring and adhere to hearing protection protocols.
  • China plants: Health examination is arranged pre-employment, during employment, and before resignation for employees potentially exposed to hazardous substances. Tests covered exposure to dust, tin dioxide, methyl methacrylate, ethyl acetate, n-hexane, trichloroethylene, n-heptane, cyclohexane, benzene, isopropyl alcohol, noise, copper dust, power-frequency electric fields, acrylic acid, laser radiation, XY external radiation, anhydrous ethanol, and ethanolamine. All 279 required personnel were examined, achieving a 100% participation rate. Employees with abnormal results are scheduled for follow-up testing. If abnormalities persist after two consecutive tests, they are classified as having an occupational contraindication and will be reassigned internally to avoid continued exposure. In 2024, 1 employee at Kunshan plants was reassigned due to abnormal results, while no reassignment was needed at Wujiang plants.

Health Protection
In line with the Occupational Safety and Health Act's emerging workplace health issues, Coretronic collaborates with occupational safety personnel and occupational disease specialists to implement four major programs for managing labor's physical and mental health. These programs cover hazard identification, risk assessment and control, and effectiveness evaluation, aiming to effectively reduce employees' exposure to hazards and the risk of occupational diseases. For Taiwan plants, the Company has developed operational guidelines and related measures focused on maternal health, ergonomics, abnormal workload, and suitable work for middle-aged and elderly labor.
  • No occupational disease cases occurred in 2024.



Health Promotion
The scope of health promotion planning encompasses both the physical and mental health needs of employees. Based on the results of annual health examination, the Health Management Department formulates and implements a yearly health promotion plan, which includes middle-aged and elderly care, weight management activities, first aid training, cancer screenings, and health seminars. These initiatives aim to raise health awareness among employees and foster a healthy, energetic, and comfortable workplace. In 2024, 113 health activity sessions with 4,774 participations.
