Selected companies receive exemptions from regular labor inspections for three years, preferential bank loan interest rates, and priority access to government support programs.
Acuon Capital received high marks for its various efforts to promote work-life harmony for employees, including improving work hour efficiency, encouraging the use of annual leave, supporting work-parenting balance, and fostering a healthy organizational culture.
The company has implemented a PC-off system and flexible start and end times to systematically manage working hours and establish a culture of leaving work on time.
Acuon Capital operates a range of programs such as a focused vacation system that grants welfare points for taking five consecutive days off, long-service leave, prenatal check-up leave, and family care leave.
Its childcare support policies were also positively evaluated. The company provides 70 days of paid maternity leave, childbirth congratulatory payments, and reimbursement for cesarean section surgery through actual expense insurance. The maternity leave usage rate among female employees is 100%. The number of male employees utilizing parental leave and reduced working hours during the childcare period is also steadily increasing.
Acuon Capital has also focused on improving work practices and organizational culture. The company offers practical benefits such as housing loans, tuition support for employees' children, psychological counseling services, health check-ups, and access to condominiums and condolence services, thereby raising employee satisfaction. To enhance work immersion and recovery, focus rooms, stretching rooms, and break areas have been established. The company also actively supports communication and competency development through onboarding programs for new hires, club activities, workshops for managers, and in-house special lectures.
