Workplace Behavior

Workplace Culture

A business with an unstable cultural foundation, where managers lack tact and colleagues do not respect each other, is in a different league Conversely, a positive and strong culture, where employees are listened to, their contributions are valued, and positive connections are fostered, makes it easier to attract talented individuals who can create value and profits for the business When an ideal working environment is built, with strong bonds between leaders and employees, as well as among colleagues, the business will attract candidates Instead of struggling to compete for talent, talent will compete with each other to work for the company and want to stay with it long-term

Problem-Solving in a Teamwork Spirit

With the daily pressures of work, minor conflicts are sometimes unavoidable. If these conflicts are not addressed honestly and effectively, they can escalate, leading to unforeseen consequences for all parties involved

Therefore, when conflicts arise that cannot be resolved, or when there is suspicion that they could pose an imminent risk to oneself, employees can proactively contact the HR person in charge of each factory to receive timely support and resolution for all parties

Report immediately to your manager or HR for assistance..

SECURITY DURING TET

1 Lock doors securely when going out or visiting relatives.

2 Keep valuable possessions safe.

Nutrition for People with High Blood Pressure

Basic Eating Principles

High blood pressure is a condition in which systolic blood pressure is ≥ 140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure is ≥ 90 mmHg. Diet directly affects blood pressure – eating too much salt, too much fat, and not enough vegetables will cause blood pressure to rise, easily leading to dangerous complications such as stroke, heart failure, or kidney failure.

In the "Blood Pressure Control" program at V F R, each participant receives a nutritious meal according to medical guidelines The meals emphasize adherence to nutritional principles, including reducing salt intake, increasing green vegetables, and balancing protein and carbohydrates – directly supporting blood pressure stabilization.

Dr. Alex, Wellbeing Center Manager

Quality Issues

DARK AND INCONSISTENT VENEER COLOR.

Workmanship occurred throughout the production process

Supervisors and team leaders did not provide adequate guidance and supervision

The Yield team's role in the veneer area was not fully utilized.

SOLUTIONS:

Train workers on how to classify veneer color characteristics

Identify and correct current errors

The production and QC teams should cooperate closely to detect errors early in the production process.

OVER-SANDING

Inexperienced workers: Workers lack sufficient experience and therefore haven't mastered sanding techniques. Personal errors on the part of the worker

Possible use of the wrong type of sandpaper (grit size) or unsuitable equipment.

SOLUTION

Provide in-depth training for workers on sanding techniques.

The team leader or supervisor should provide regular support and advice to workers during their work process

VENEER PEELING/CRACKING

Incorrect adhesive application technique. Incorrect pressing technique. High moisture content in the veneer and substrate

SOLUTION

Train workers on adhesive application techniques and perform line tests.

Re-check the pressing machine and technical procedures.

Control the MC% moisture content of veneer and substrate before pressing, inspect the surface and the amount of adhesive used

Update work instructions (WI) to reflect the new method
