Diverse Hiring, Equal Human Rights
In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals for gender equality, we are committed to equal treatment of men and women in recruitment, employment, training, and promotion, creating diverse and fair employment opportunities, and achieving equal pay for equal work and equal promotion opportunities to foster a diverse and equitable workplace.
The company hires talents with relevant competencies based on positions, without discrimination based on nationality, race, gender, disability, political stance, etc. We formulate work rules in accordance with the Gender Equality Employment Act and relevant labor laws, prohibiting child labor, forced labor, and any form of workplace bullying, discrimination, or harassment.
In upholding our human rights policy, we prioritize workplace equality, non-discrimination, and a safe working environment. We collaborate with relevant departments in various schools for internship programs, strengthen the prevention of illegal employment or any form of forced labor, and implement the protection of employee equality, personal freedom, and rejection of any potential harm to personal safety, discrimination, harassment, coercion, or unequal treatment in the workplace.
Furthermore, the Group provides comprehensive postpartum support measures, such as maternity leave and breastfeeding facilities, to support employees in balancing family and work life. In accordance with the "Act of Gender Equality in Employment," we offer both male and female employees the opportunity to apply for maternity leave and parental leave. We also have a nursery room and have signed contracts with nearby childcare institutions to allow female employees to work with peace of mind.
We treat every employee and customer with sincerity and continue to improve the management of human rights-related issues. We implement leave systems and encourage colleagues to pay attention to work-life balance. We are committed to providing a good working environment and space for learning and growth, creating a diverse, equal, and harmonious workplace.
Employee Participation and Digital Rights
Silks Hotel Group promotes an employee stock ownership plan to encourage employee participation in the company's long-term development. Through this approach, employees can directly share the economic benefits brought about by the company's growth, further strengthening the Group's commitment to social responsibility and economic inclusion.
Employee Communication and Complaint Mechanisms
We have established a comprehensive labor-management communication platform and complaint channels, with dedicated personnel from the Human Resources Department handling employee feedback in a timely manner. Through sound human rights systems, welfare systems, and stable remuneration, we implement education and training and work performance evaluations, and build a healthy and safe working environment, allowing every employee to feel secure in showcasing their talents in the workplace and demonstrating the sustainable goal of co-learning and mutual benefit.
