PLANET Technology, a global leader in IP-based networking solutions, has been honored with the Emerging Role Model Award for Sustainable Leading Enterprise in Healthy Workforce by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration under the Ministry of Labor. This award recognizes the company’s outstanding performance in workplace safety, employee health, and sustainable governance. As a pioneer in ESG practices, PLANET has long prioritized a “healthy workforce” as the core of its sustainability strategy, integrating innovative management systems and cross-departmental collaboration to create a workplace free from occupational hazards and foster a welcoming, inclusive, and happy environment.

Health 360 Comprehensive Plan: Building a Support System for Physical, Mental, and Emotional Well-being
PLANET launched the “Health 360” initiative to safeguard employee well-being through comprehensive “prevention,” “maintenance,” and “consultation” programs that exceed regulatory standards. In addition to offering on-site medical care, health screenings, and physical therapy, the company has implemented a 24-hour EAP psychological counseling hotline, introduced “Fun Exercise” stretching classes, and organized technology-based fitness and wellness seminars, embedding a culture of health into daily workplace routines. In 2023, PLANET achieved ISO 45001 certification for its occupational health and safety management system and has maintained zero occupational accidents and zero occupational diseases for eight consecutive years, demonstrating its commitment to lean and human-centric safety management.

Diverse and Inclusive Workplace: Advancing Happiness and Equal Opportunity
PLANET actively promotes a DEI culture, with women comprising over 50% of its management team. The company provides flexible working hours, remote work options, and a wide range of family-friendly benefits, including childcare allowances, long-term care subsidies, and interest-free mortgage loans, helping employees balance work and family responsibilities. Additionally, PLANET continues to advance talent development through the “PLANET E-Academy” and its cloud-based learning platform, encouraging continuous growth and sustainable talent cultivation. These institutional support measures ensure that the workplace is not only a place of employment but also a foundation for personal fulfillment and happiness.

Integrating Governance Innovation with Sustainability to Enhance Health Impact
In terms of sustainable governance, the CEO personally chairs the Occupational Safety and Health Committee and incorporates ESG performance indicators into the senior executive compensation system, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainability. Furthermore, PLANET collaborates with Tzu Chi Hospital, the Ministry of Sports, and the Taiwan Association of Family Caregivers to introduce external health and wellness resources, establishing a cross-sector model for a long-term care-friendly workplace.

People-Oriented Values Begin in the Workplace
PLANET believes that a healthy workforce is fundamental to corporate resilience and sustainable development. Receiving the “Emerging Role Model Award for Sustainable Leading Enterprise in Healthy Workforce” from the Ministry of Labor is a strong affirmation of the company’s long-standing dedication to health, safety, and inclusion in the workplace. Moving forward, PLANET will continue to promote institutional innovation and people-centered governance, partnering with employees and supply chain stakeholders to create exemplary happy workplace models and advance toward an inclusive and sustainable future.
