We strive to create a humane and comfortable office environment where new employees are subjected to systematic training and have access to diverse learning resources to help them quickly accumulate professional knowledge and skills for the semiconductor industry, and receive reasonable compensations in return. The Company also has an Employee Welfare Committee that organizes exciting and interesting recreation activities on a yearly basis to maintain employees' work-life balance as well as physical and mental well-being, and create a sustainably healthy workplace. We believe a competitive and stable workforce to be essential for improving the productivity and competitive advantage of the Company. We continue to design and provide an environment where talents may thrive. Through talent cultivation, we strive to become the best employer that looks after talents.

  • Diversified recruitment policy

    Nanya Technology operations are distributed both domestically and internationally, so our employees' nationalities are highly diverse. In addition to employing Taiwanese nationals, in 2025, we employed individuals from 16 different nationalities, including Mainland Chinese, French, German, Japanese, American, Burmese, Italian, Kenyan, South Korean, Turkish, British, Indonesian, Malaysian, Vietnamese, Polish, and Cambodian, forming an internationally diverse workplace. We also align with and support the government's policy of encouraging the employment of people with disabilities, creating a friendly and diverse workplace. As of December 2025, we employed 37 individuals with disabilities in Taiwan, with a hiring rate of 1.00%. We will continue to employ a sufficient number of people with disabilities, providing suitable job vacancies to increase their employment opportunities and build a diverse and inclusive workplace.

  • Stable workforce

    The capital and technology-intensive semiconductor industry requires not only substantial investment in plant and manufacturing equipment costing tens of billions of NTD, but also a large number of talented engineering professionals for Nanya Technology's production operations. In 2025, our Taiwan and overseas subsidiaries employed 3,835 regular employees (including 87 interns).The gender ratio among regular employees is approximately 2.66:1, with 2,786 male employees (72.65%) and 1,049 female employees (27.35%). In 2025, Nanya Technology had 33 female managers in mid- to senior-level management positions, accounting for 12.6% of top management. The average age of our employees is 38.86 years, with individuals aged 30 to 50 forming the primary workforce, accounting for 63.94% of total regular employees. The majority of employees hold bachelor's or master's degrees. All regular and non-regular employees are directly hired by the Company, with no part-time employees in 2025. 100% of our workforce is full-time.

  • Attracting High-Quality Talent

    In 2025, a total of 459 individuals were hired in Taiwan, with approximately NT$610,000 invested in recruitment expenses, averaging NT$1,348 per hire. We employ diverse recruitment channels, including online advertisements and internal referrals, and posting talent recruitment information on our official social media platform to enhance company visibility. Furthermore, we strengthen industry-academia collaborations to target students, focusing on their technical and practical skills to proactively identify and recruit outstanding talent and overcome recruitment challenges. Our university recruitment events, themed Leading the Future with Your Intelligence, feature on-campus interactions, communication, and seminars, encouraging aspiring tech professionals to bravely pursue and realize their dreams as well as contribute to the development of Taiwan's semiconductor industry.

Talent Retention

Comprehensive Work Security

In response to industry changes and operational environment challenges, the Company continuously promotes fair and reasonable work practices, prioritizing the protection of employee work rights. Under the Formosa Plastics Group's human resource integration and utilization mechanism, we prioritize internal transfers over layoffs in terms of workforce adjustment. To motivate employees to achieve organizational goals and retain outstanding talent, we have established a quarterly incentive bonus system, encouraging employees to actively pursue business targets and share in the Company's success. In 2025, our voluntary turnover rate was 10.73% (with a male to female turnover ratio of approximately 3.8:1), an increase of 4.52% compared to 2024, which was 6.21%. This increase was primarily due to industry-wide conditions and market shifts that fueled higher voluntary attrition. To stabilize our workforce, starting in July 2025, we implemented several measures: an adjustment to the starting salary for entry-level employees with no experience, routine annual salary adjustments for all managers and employees, and structural salary adjustments for specific departments and professionals, aiming to ensure a happy and safe working environment for employees.

Offering Good Remuneration

To ensure the competitiveness of our overall remuneration package, our compensation and benefits system is planned and reviewed through local salary surveys and regional salary benchmarking associations, taking into account industry competitiveness, macroeconomic factors, and the sustainable operation of the corporate culture. Monthly salary includes base salary, meal/transportation/regional allowances, operational allowance, and efficiency bonus. Additionally, we provide variable remuneration such as bonuses, which are determined by individual employee performance and the achievement rate of organizational goals (or profitability), regardless of gender, to reward employees for excellent performance and share our success. In 2025, the average salary for full-time non-managerial employees was NT$1,614,000, a 17% increase compared to 2024. The median salary for full-time non-managerial employees was NT$1,356,000.

Employee Engagement Survey

The Human Resource Division of Nanya Technology conducts an annual Employee Engagement Survey for all employees to understand their level of recognition with the Company across aspects such as work, management, and organizational vision. This year's survey contains 28 questions across six aspects to collect employee feedback. The response rate for 2025 was 94%, with an average employee recognition score of 77%. Although it did not reach the target of 78%, it still represents a 4% increase compared to 73% in 2024. The main reason is that, since 2022, the DRAM industry has been affected by cyclical downturns, leading to weaker operating performance at Nanya Technology and tighter related benefits and bonus payouts. However, following the market recovery in the second half of 2025, various benefit programs have gradually been restored, and overall performance across the six key dimensions has improved for both male and female employees.

  • The response rate in Employee Engagement Survey in 2025 94 %
  • The average approval rate of employees in 2025 77 %
