Integrity Management
Yankey Engineering regularly interacts with stakeholders through routine communication channels. In cases where potential significant negative impacts may arise between stakeholders and the company, the responsible department will conduct due diligence on the financial status of the stakeholders and report the findings to the Chairman. Based on the specific findings, the Chairman will assess whether the issue poses a significant risk to the overall operations of the company and whether it should be reported to the Board of Directors. Ultimately, the Board will make resolutions based on the department's due diligence report and assign tasks to the relevant departments for execution.
In 2022, there were no incidents of potential significant negative events between Yankey Engineering and its stakeholders; hence, there were no records of reports to the Board of Directors. Yankey Engineering recognizes that currently, the company only conducts financial due diligence on stakeholders, which is insufficient. Going forward, the company plans to expand the scope of its due diligence to include stakeholders’ compliance records, environmental protection, and labor rights. This will enable Yankee Engineering to enhance its due diligence process and refine the role of the Board in managing potential significant negative impacts.
Yankey's Initiatives in Promoting Integrity Management
Item | Performance description | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Promoting an Organization Culture of Integrity First | The organizational culture of Yankey Engineering is founded on legal compliance, with integrity as the highest priority, which forms the core values of the company. All business activities are conducted with a commitment to honesty and compliance with the law. This ensures that the principle of integrity management is effectively upheld within the organization. | ||||
Establishing Codes of Ethical Conduct and Operating Procedures |
The company has always placed great emphasis on the integrity of its employees. To reinforce this, we have established the "Code of Ethical Conduct" and "Procedures and Guidelines for Integrity Management," which emphasize our core values of integrity, innovation, discipline, positivity, and customer trust. Our mission is to drive global connections through innovation and care. Additionally, a report on these initiatives is presented to the Board of Directors at least once a year.

New Employee Training | During the onboarding phase, new employees are introduced to the company’s integrity principles by the Human Resources Department to foster a strong sense of ethical awareness. At the same time, management is required to lead by example and adhere strictly to the principles of integrity, thereby shaping the overall integrity culture of the company through subtle influence. | ||||
Internal and External Whistleblowing Channels and Reward/Punishment System |
Yankey Engineering has also established complaint/whistleblowing channels, with both internal and external reporting mechanisms, as well as a reward and disciplinary system. The company will continuously monitor the development of domestic and international regulations related to integrity management, while encouraging directors, managers, and employees to provide suggestions for reviewing and improving integrity management policies and initiatives. This aims to enhance the effectiveness of implementing corporate integrity management. In 2022, Yankey Engineering did not receive any whistleblowing cases. Additionally, Yankey Engineering’s management department is responsible for designing and reviewing the complaint channels and handling cases. In the future, the company will also evaluate the communication and discussion of this matter during stakeholder meetings organized for clients and suppliers, using the feedback to improve the complaint mechanism.

Board of Directors Continuing Education and Performance Evaluation
To strengthen the ethical standards of behavior within the company and implement integrity management, we have established the "Code of Ethical Conduct" and the "Procedures and Guidelines for Integrity Management" within the company. These documents cover areas such as: preventing conflicts of interest, avoiding opportunities for personal gain, confidentiality responsibilities, fair trade practices, protecting and properly using company assets, compliance with laws and regulations, encouraging the reporting of any illegal or unethical behavior, and disciplinary actions. These guidelines are implemented after approval by the Board of Directors, communicated to the independent directors, and presented to the shareholders' meeting. Additionally, the anti-corruption policy is communicated and promoted to employees.
At the same time, we actively encourage directors to adhere to the "Corporate Governance Best Practice Principles for TWSE/TPEx Listed Companies." During their term, directors are required to complete at least 6 hours of training annually on corporate governance topics, including courses on finance, risk management, business, commercial law, accounting, sustainability, internal control systems, and financial reporting responsibilities. We also continue to arrange courses for both directors and employees on topics related to corporate integrity management, corporate governance, legal compliance, risk control, anti-money laundering, and combating terrorist financing.
