A series of Pick Up and Go activities combined exercises and environmental protection
WT has multipurpose classroom, and organizes various sports courses to encourage employees to develop good exercise habits, and enhances their awareness of self-health management. In 2023, the Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Beijing offices in China continued to engage professional instructor to lead yoga classes, so that employees can strengthen their bodies and relax their bodies and minds under correct guidance. A common hobby may lead to a common health and beauty.

The employees were encouraged to bring their families with them to experience the mountains in northern Taiwan. A series of interactive games were incorporated into the program, and the background stories of each peak and trail explained by guides. A total of 1,022 person-times participated in the ten walks in 2023. Through observation and feedback from employees, it can be seen that the walk did not pose a challenge to the participants. They unanimously agreed that the walks could be more strenuous. Therefore, the future walks will be more challenging, or walks of different levels of challenge will be offered to suit different age groups and physical conditions.

In 2024, it is planned to plan a series of “Health Passport” activities with a higher intensity of health activities. The activities include the adoption of Shimen Baisha Bay, Laomei Lvshitao Beach, Kite Park Beach and Zhongjiao Sand Beads on the north coast of New Taipei City. Beach cleaning activities in the bay, hiking and hiking with different levels of difficulty, and physical training tasks that can be completed at home. employees can choose fitness tasks that suit them based on their own health and physical condition, and strengthen the observation of individual sports conditions. When implementing weekly health exercise video feedback, we will pay more attention to employees’ exercise postures and physical condition reactions after exercise. This will be coupled with quarterly consultation services from physical therapists starting in 2023, so that employees can learn more about health while exercising. What sports are suitable for you?
Listen to employees’ needs and organize diversified customized lectures
Over the years, we have continued to actively promote health promotion activities. We analyze health examination data every year to understand the health problems of employees, and combine it with the lecture satisfaction questionnaire of the previous year to understand employees’ feelings and needs. In addition to arranging corresponding health education topics In addition, it also conforms to the promotion content of the four major plans. In 2023, family education lectures and health lectures will be held in Taiwan and China, with the themes of “Parent-Child Relationship – 3C Parenting Battle”, “Intergenerational Relationship – Long-term Care Resources, Use This Way”, “Love Relationship – Love Code – After the Conflict” , love each other more”, “Health checkup big data analysis”, “Sliding disc training” “Elastic band training”, “Female theme-prevention and treatment of breast cancer”, “Male theme-prevention and health care of major diseases (lung cancer, myocardial infarction, prostate )”, the lecture content not only explained information, but also provided practical exercises for daily life applications.

Encourage regular health checkups and provide multiple health checkup plans
WT currently has a full-time health manager in Taiwan to plan and promote employee health management. In addition to providing health checkup consultation and advice to employees, doctors are also invited to the company every month for medical consultation services. Employees are entitled to a health checkup expense subsidy once every year, which is better than required by the laws and regulations. There is also a flexible accumulation system, allowing employees to choose from a wider range of checkup items with the higher amount accumulated for up to two years. In 2023, the health checkup utilization rate reached 85.6% in Taiwan, and 80% in China. The steady increase in the health checkup utilization rate reflects an increase in employees’ health awareness. In the future, examination items will be identified and made available based on the prevalence of major diseases around the world and in specific regions for employees to choose from according to their own needs or family medical history.
Track health checkup results and schedule physician consultations
To provide more package options and more schedule flexibility to suit personal preference, application for a variety of health checkup packages (such as cardiovascular programs, gastroenteroscopy programs, etc.) is open from January to November every year in Taiwan, and four hours of health checkup leave are granted. After the checkup, a professional team will analyze and explain the report, define management standard by health checkup result levels, and give appropriate treatment accordingly: Level 1 is normal, Level 2 will be given occupational health education guidance, Level 3 be given occupational medical consultation and health education, and Level 4 be referred to specialized medical attention or treatment after an occupational medical interview. In China, health checkups are completed between April and July every year.

Each office in Taiwan has an ambulance notification window, arranges first aid personnel training and regular return training, and can effectively provide rescue guidance when an emergency occurs. AEDs are installed in the building, and the location is announced for emergency rescue. The Mainland China Region currently focuses on arranging first aid courses and related lectures to popularize employees’ first aid knowledge. In the future, first aid reporting windows will also be set up in different regions. Blood pressure monitors are installed at designated locations in the office to always care about the health of employees. In response to influenza epidemic peaks in autumn and winter every year, in addition to regularly promoting and encouraging employees to receive influenza vaccines, we will also provide a half-price subsidy for the “Oriental Influenza Cell Culture Vaccine” in 2023, and arrange for vaccination to be completed before October to promote early prevention and treatment Measures can help avoid the risk of serious complications or death after infection.

Four major plans for employee health protection
Prevention of abnormal workload-triggered diseases
In order to avoid abnormal workloads, supervisors at all levels are required to take the initiative to care for the labor conditions of employees. Any health problems may be reported to the health manager for assistance and care. Health consultation and abnormal workload assessment are available during the monthly doctor consultation service.
Prevention plan for illegal infringement during the performance of duties
At the workplace, the Company has posted relevant publicity materials and specified a complaint hotline and email address in the work rules. If a colleague encounters sexual harassment, stalking, or other illegal acts while performing their duties, they can file a complaint. To safeguard the rights of complainants, the handling of complaints is conducted in a confidential manner, and the complainant’s name or other identifying information that could reveal their identity will not be disclosed. The person handling the complaint should create a written record of the handling process of the complaint, and follow the guidelines for preventing illegal infringement of job duties. The related execution records should be kept for 3 years.
Prevention plan for ergonomic hazards
The nature of WT’s work often involves sitting for long periods of time at workstations, which may cause chronic effects on muscle, fascia, and intervertebral discs. WT provides employees with adjustable desks and chairs to reduce the risk of such ergonomic hazards. The workstations can be adjusted according to individual needs, so that workers can work at a good gaze angle in a healthy posture. There are also standing workstation areas to reduce sitting time. In addition, seven robot vacuum cleaners were purchased for the cleaning staff to reduce repetitive gestures. The robots worked for 1,743 hours in total in 2023, sparing cleaning staff approximately 145.25 hours per month of repetitive gestures operating vacuum cleaners.

Relevant awareness posters have been posted on the health bulletin board on each floor. A pilot project began in 2023 inviting professional physical therapists to visit the offices once a quarter to provide one-on-one consultation and guidance on how to adjust incorrect postures, relieve discomfort and other ways to prevent ergonomic hazards. The physical therapists may provide treatment when necessary, including fastening to relieve pain from carpal tunnel syndrome, and dressing and bandaging in the case of muscle soreness and discomfort after exercise. They also give advice on how to exercise correctly.
 
The sessions were very popular in 2023, and those who have attended the sessions gave positive feedback and support to the project in the questionnaire survey, commenting that it is highly practical and helpful. An increased number of sessions are therefore planned for 2024.
