Diversity

Diversity

We adhere to policies and programs of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) to encompass representatives and participants from different groups, including employees of different ages, ethnicities, abilities, physical and mental disabilities, genders, religions, cultures, and sexual orientations, and ensures that they enjoy the same labor rights and interests.
Building a diversified and inclusive working environment through various DEI programs.
D-Link creates opportunities for individuals to find their best fit, regardless of any kind of disability. In 2022, D-Link hired a total of 4 employees with disabilities, including 2 with severe or extremely severe disabilities, with 1 of them being a manager. This is an increase of 3 new hires compared to 2021. Globally, D-Link employs a total of 13 people with disabilities, accounting for 0.8% of its workforce.

Beware of and Managing Bias

Due to the fact that understanding bias and building awareness is a first step towards real change, we address this by helping employees understand how individuals are impacted by bias, and what actions continue to reinforce biases. We encourage every employee to remain curious and humble about cultural differences.

Local Employment

D-Link values local employment, embracing recruiting talent locally, respecting diversity, and ensuring equal opportunities. As of the end of 2022, the proportion of local employment (domestic employees) in both the headquarters and the Taiwan branch reaches 98.8%, with foreign staff constituting 1.2%.

Mixed Team

We encourage learning from different voices, experiences, values, and cultures. Multiple talents can enhance the perspective and stimulate the creativity of the team.
For teams with members of high homogeneity, the Company will arrange employees of different gender, cultural background or age to participate in a plan or project, which may have a positive impact on creativity, innovation and problem-solving methods.

Evaluating Company Policies

We regularly evaluate potential work areas where discrimination may exist, and determine whether company policies will lead to long-term workplace discrimination (such as racial or gender discrimination), and improve them to make the workplace more equitable.
