The overall response rate reached 89%, and the survey results faithfully reflect employees' voices |

Novatek's Human Resources Department conducted an Employee Sustainable Engagement Survey in 2025. The survey invited full-time employees who had been employed for at least three months as of June 15, 2025, covering a total of 3,717 employees across Taiwan and overseas subsidiaries. With an overall response rate of 89%, the results reflect the opinions and sentiments of most employees. |

Three areas where Novatek outperformed the High Technology Norm |
|
The survey was structured around the core themes of Purpose, Work, People, and Total Rewards, and examined 12 sub themes in depth. Overall results show that in the areas of Inspiring, Voice, and Growth, we performed above the High Technology Norm, indicating that employees recognize the company’s provision of clear career development paths and ample training resources. Conversely, there remains room for continued improvement and strengthening in the areas of Drive, Trust, Collaboration, and Wellbeing. The Sustainable Engagement score for this survey was 74%. In this context, engagement refers to whether employees are focused and involved in their work (Engaged), receive the support needed to complete their tasks (Enabled), and can maintain their energy (Energized). |

Driving improvement initiatives to continuously build a sustainable corporate environment |
|
Based on the overall survey results, the company will adopt the theme “Make Voices Heard, Make Actions Visible” and implement prioritized measures to address key improvement areas: foster an open communication culture and continue to provide diverse feedback channels; expand the deployment of AI solutions to streamline workflows and enhance efficiency, and strengthen cross departmental collaboration to co create change; and continue to establish a healthier, systematically supported work environment to materially improve employee satisfaction and well being. |
Human rights protection program-Management and tracking of abnormal working hours
To help employees balance their work and life, Novatek has formulated the “Working Hours and Flexible Work Regulations” and the “Regulations on Overtime Pay and Compensatory Leave” in accordance with the Labor Standards Act and related regulations. Through new employee training, regular announcements to promote statutory working hours, and the developed “attendance analysis system”, supervisors can effectively manage the working hours of the employees. If the supervisors need to work overtime due to business needs, they need to obtain the consent from the employees. When the overtime is completed, overtime pay or compensatory leave will be provided. For employees who have consistent long working hours, regular notifications are sent to remind their supervisors to understand the employees’ working conditions, working load and emotional status, and take the initiative to care for the employees’ physical and mental health as well as the conditions of their families, ensuring the employees of Novatek to achieve work-life balance through appropriate work arrangements.
