        Microcosm Technology places great importance on workplace diversity and gender equality, striving to create a harassment-free and discrimination-free work environment.<\/p>\n

        The company explicitly opposes any unequal treatment based on gender and implements proactive measures to ensure fair treatment for all employees, particularly regarding compensation and career development opportunities. In addition to the minimum wage requirements announced under the Labor Standards Act and the Minimum Wage Review Act, salaries are determined based on job category, education and experience, professional knowledge and skills, years of experience, and individual performance, with no gender-based pay differences.<\/p>\n

        Currently, 34.8% of Microcosm\u2019s employees are women, and 55.5% of managerial positions are held by women. The company believes that a diverse and balanced workplace fosters innovation, enhances teamwork, and ultimately drives overall corporate success.<\/p>\n
