ESG
Employees are the most important cornerstone of corporate growth. To foster strong labor relations, MetaAge Group actively promotes a fair, healthy, and diverse workplace environment. Employee statistics are calculated based on year-end headcount. As of the end of 2024, MetaAge Group had a total of 662 employees—326 men and 336 women—slightly fewer than the 671 employees in 2023. Full-time employees accounted for 97.1%, with a nearly 1:1 gender ratio. MetaAge Group believes that a diverse workforce enhances corporate innovation and embodies the value of equality in the workplace, thereby creating a positive cycle. Across dimensions such as employment type, location, age, and job level, the company maintains an equitable and balanced structure.
Employees of MetaAge are young and energetic. As far as education is concerned, most employees hold a college/university diploma, followed by those with a master’s degree and then those with a doctorate.
MetaAge offers smooth career paths while at the same time valuing gender equality. There are female high-ranking supervisors and medium-ranking supervisors.
MetaAge is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive workplace by providing appropriate employment opportunities to individuals from disadvantaged groups and those with foreign nationality. In 2024, a total of seven foreign employees were hired, primarily serving as technical engineers, accounting for approximately 1.54% of the technical engineering department.
Employees from disadvantaged groups accounted for 1.96% of the workforce. MetaAge also exceeded the legally required 1% employment quota for persons with disabilities, demonstrating our commitment to protecting their rights to work and live with dignity while contributing to a more inclusive and supportive work environment.
In order to cope with the rapid growth of the industry, we should prepare in advance and increase our competitiveness. MetaAge actively recruits excellent professionals in business management, business development and engineering and technical services. For example, in 2024, there will be 69 male employees, accounting for 45.10% of the total. There are 84 female employees, accounting for about 54.90% of the total. The total number of new employees is 153, which is more than the total number of new employees in 2023 of 120. After joining our parent company, Qisda Group, in 2019, we have provided more diversified talent development programs and a wealth of employee benefits and activities to attract potential talents in the market to join MetaAge.
MetaAge Group provides parental leave, maternity leave and paternity leave, so that employees can balance work and family, and has a comprehensive employee return system, including arrangements for the period of leave without pay, work and career assistance, etc. In 2024, the number of applicants for parental leave will be 4, the expected number of reinstatement in the current year is 4, the actual number of reinstatement is 4.
