We respect and strive to uphold the human rights of our employees and those working in our supply chain. We strictly adhere to the human rights and labor standards outlined by the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), the International Labour Organization (ILO), and the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), and we support and respect the applicable laws and regulations of the countries where we operate, and we commit ourselves to protecting human rights and labor rights in our operations and the value chain.

We uphold the values of diversity, equality and inclusion and are firmly against any form of discrimination in recruitment, promotion and compensation on the grounds of race, color, age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, disability, pregnancy, religion, and other factors. We have zero tolerance for harassment and discrimination on any grounds and ensure that all employees are given equal work opportunities and suitable jobs by regularly reviewing procedures.
Health, Safety and Well-being
We place the highest priority on the health, safety and well-being of our employees. We have established an occupational health and safety management system to identify and mitigate any risks associated with health and safety in our operations, and we provide occupational health and safety check-ups for all employees to ensure workplace safety. In addition, we also provide our employees with a competitive remuneration and benefits system, as well as a reasonable and well-matched welfare scheme.
Training and Development
We are committed to empowering the growth of our people and the realization of their potential through the training opportunities we offer, which focus on three areas: technical, functional and soft skills. In terms of personal development and career planning, we implement annual Employee Performance Appraisal (EPA) for our employees, provide them with a smooth promotion channel, and motivate them to achieve personal career achievements while developing together with the company.
Employee Communication
We value the voices of our employees and have established open communication channels, including a whistleblowing and appeals hotline, CEO's email, general manager's email, employee comment box, employee satisfaction survey, etc., to create a more equal, open, and harmonious working and communication environment.
In order to promote sustainability in the value chain, we extend our commitment to labor, environment, and business ethics to our key partners, strengthen our sustainable supply chain management and build more collaborative relationships with our suppliers and value chain partners.
Supply Chain Management
Supplier Code of Conduct
We have developed and regularly update our Supplier Code of Conduct as an overarching guideline and requirement for a sustainable supply chain that supports our sustainability strategy with no tolerance for forced labor, child labor and environmental damage. We are committed to promoting responsible business practices among all our suppliers and protecting the human and labor rights of our supply chain workers.
Conflict Minerals Management
Conflict minerals are minerals mined in conditions where human rights abuses occur. The term typically refers to minerals –tin, tantalum, tungsten, gold (3TG), and cobalt – that are mined in the eastern region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
As a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), we are committed to the control of conflict minerals and have created a conflict mineral management system in accordance with the OECD’s five step framework for due diligence in the supply chain.
Suppliers Engagement
We believe that close collaboration with our suppliers is essential to achieving supply chain sustainability. To this end, we actively express our expectations in terms of social responsibility to our suppliers and help them improve their operations to meet our requirements. We provide suppliers with training on corporate social responsibility, Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), carbon management, and other related topics to enhance their awareness and capabilities in labor, environmental, and business ethics, and to continuously improve their management and performance.
Environmental sustainability is at the core of our business operations and sustainability strategy. As a leading display manufacturer, it is both our responsibility and the expectation of our stakeholders to reduce our ecological footprint by improving operational efficiency and adopting sustainable product design.
We have formulated the Environmental Protection Policy, which covers policies, management mechanisms, approaches, and goals for climate change, water, biodiversity, and pollution prevention. We have established a comprehensive environmental management system to guide the company's operations in a low-carbon and green manner, and continuously reduce the environmental impact of our operations through regular monitoring and auditing.
Emissions Reduction
We actively respond to China's '30·60' decarbonization goal and the global initiative to address climate change, continue to improve the climate governance system and climate-related risk management mechanism, formulate carbon reduction targets and paths systematically, and got validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in 2022.
Focusing on the three strategic directions of "low-carbon operations", "low-carbon products" and "sustainable supply chain", we identify material issues and formulate quantitative indicators, integrate sustainability concepts into all stages of product design, production, packaging, transportation, and use, and strive to promote carbon reduction in our own operations and the value chains.
Energy Conservation
We continue to optimize the energy management system to improve energy efficiency and reduce our dependence on limited resources. We promote the standardization of energy management at our global manufacturing sites and adopt diverse energy-saving measures and technologies, such as installing intelligently controlled air-conditioning systems and using frequency converters to improve energy consumption efficiency, installing distributed photovoltaic systems, and using renewable energy sources, in order to achieve continual improvement in energy utilization and optimize the structure of energy usage on an ongoing basis.
Circular Economy
We consider the compatibility, ease of disassembly, and recycling of components during the product design stage, and all our products comply with strict quality control systems and safety certifications to ensure the highest standards of quality and safety during the design and manufacturing process, enhance product durability, extend product life and reduce product obsolescence. At the same time, we strictly comply with the applicable laws and regulations of the countries we operate in, taking into full consideration the convenience and efficiency of disposal, enhancing the channels for recycling and treatment, and actively practicing the extended responsibility of end-of-life products.
Eco-design
Guided by the concept of green and sustainable product design, we develop and innovate energy-saving technologies for our products to comprehensively reduce the product’s carbon footprint, and explore the balance between product sustainability and performance, in order to provide consumers with greener and more sustainable products and solutions.
We are committed to increasing the proportion of sustainable materials used in our products and packaging, such as post-consumer recycled plastics, ocean-bound plastic, and bio-based materials, etc. We also reduce the carbon footprint of packaging through packaging reduction, the use of environmentally friendly inks, and the use of recycled or renewable materials to replace non-biodegradable packaging materials.
Community engagement is one of TPV’s core values. We aspire to share our business success with our local communities through promoting rural revitalization, educational equity and community engagement, thereby contributing to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
