Reason for the Issue's Importance
For TNP as a listed company, promoting employee diversity and
ensuring equal opportunity not only fulfills regulatory requirements
but also contributes to the company's sustainable development,
enhances its social image, and strengthens risk management.
Impact and Influence
- Human/Human Rights Potential Positive Impact:
- Social Responsibility and Corporate Image: Diversity and equal opportunities align with the principles of corporate social responsibility, reflecting the company's positive contributions to society. Achievements in these areas can enhance the company's image and reputation in the social aspect of ESG.
- Talent Attraction and Retention: Providing equal opportunities and a diverse work environment helps attract and retain top talent. Diverse teams can offer varied perspectives and innovative thinking, aiding the company in adapting and innovating its products and services.
- Social Justice and Human Rights: Employee diversity and equal opportunities demonstrate the company's respect for human rights and pursuit of social fairness, aligning with the human rights aspect of ESG and promoting equality and justice at the societal level.
- Corporate Governance Potential Positive Impact:
- Risk Management: Focusing on workforce diversity helps mitigate labor market risks by reducing reliance on a single talent group and lowering potential turnover risks.

Implementing diversity and equal opportunities is seen as an indicator of good ESG risk management and social responsibility, meeting investor expectations for sustainable investments.
