Performance Management and Development
At the beginning of each year, Acer managers and employees jointly set work objectives, conduct mid-year alignment interviews, and implement performance evaluations from the end of the year to the beginning of the following year. Through this performance evaluation process, we aim to effectively develop employees, provide timely rewards, prepare talent reserves, and adjust organizational goals. The performance evaluation primarily involves full-time employees, who first conduct self-assessments followed by manager reviews. Short-term contract workers or employees still in their probationary period are not included in the evaluation. In 2024, the global employee performance evaluation coverage reached 89%. Since 2022, we have incorporated the Standards of Business Conduct, requiring managers to consider
employees' commitment to conducting business legally, ethically, and with integrity when evaluating performance.
| Type of Performance Evaluation | Percentage of all employees |
|---|---|
| Management by objectives: Systematic use of measurable goals agreed upon by the line manager | 95% |
| Multidimensional performance appraisal (e.g., 360-degree feedback) | 1% |
| Official comparative ranking within the same employee category | 95% |
