During the year-end review, the effectiveness of their execution is evaluated based on the goals, job responsibilities, and learning plans set at the beginning of the year.
The Company conducts annual performance evaluations, wherein assessment criteria are tailored to job titles and responsibilities, serving as benchmarks for year-end bonuses, promotions, or salary adjustments. As per regulations, all employees with over a month's tenure undergo evaluations, with a 100% participation rate.
