Since incorporation, CPC has committed efforts into the creation of a healthy work environment with a "people-oriented" focus, and observed international human rights conventions including "The Global Compact," "The Universal Declaration of Human Rights," and "ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work" to ensure protection of employees' rights and that all employees are treated with dignity and respect. CPC received no major complaint concerning human rights in 2022.
CPC has established well-defined employment policies and has never hired child labor. In addition, to provide vulnerable groups with more job opportunities, we give extra credits to people with disabilities and indigenous peoples. Once recruited, employees involved in the same line of work are compensated equally, and are not differentiated by ethnicity, thoughts, religion, political association, locality, place of birth, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, appearance, disability, or union membership. Furthermore, CPC only deals with vendors that abide by the above principles, which is why no complaint of gender or racial discrimination had occurred for many years. In 2022, there was no report on violation of human rights, non-compliance with non-discrimination, or impact on business activities as a result of human rights.
Furthermore, with regards to the employment of persons with disabilities, CPC first introduced the idea of "compassion gas station" in 2001 and has since provided counseling and training for persons with disabilities, and offered them employment opportunities as well as assistance for developing professional skills. These actions are consistent with CPC's vision to protect the work rights and human rights of persons with disabilities.

CPC has developed its talent training system to cater for the roles and skills needed within the organization, and uses various software, hardware, and assistance to support the training effort. Each internal unit is required to identify work goals and training emphases based on corporate vision, organizational prospects, current year's training policy, and the skills needed for business growth and employees' duties, and devise and adjust execution of training plans accordingly. It is our hope to expand employees' professional capacity and skills closely in line with the organization's growth.

To resolve the disruptions in talent succession, CPC has been exploring action strategies, work targets, and suitable training plans on a yearly basis by taking into consideration the corporate vision, organizational prospects, future growth requirements, and internal workforce shortages.
CPC has established a Human Resource Training Facility that organizes seminars and training classes to support CPC’s business development and national growth. The facility trains employees on a wide range of expertise from refinery, excavation, engineering, marketing, administration to environment safety, and offers vertical advancement (entry-level, mid-level and advanced level) as well as horizontal advancement (across different fields of expertise) paths to help employees develop the skills needed for their career. Since the new building was commissioned in 2014, the number of classes have increased significantly from 327 in 2014 to 492 in 2022, whereas class enrollments have also grown from 13,575 in 2014 to 33,627 in 2022.
CPC actively takes part in overseas talent development forums, where it shares talent development strategies and award-winning experience with experts from various fields to improve its own practices. CPC has been a participant of "ATD Asia Pacific Conference" for 8 consecutive years; for the 2022 conference, CPC gave a presentation on "Technology-assisted Learning during Pandemic," and demonstrated how VR technologies are being used for immersion training at the Human Resource Training Facility as well as the strong lineup of instructors it has. Through these forums, CPC hopes to expand cooperation and connect human resources development with the rest of the world. CPC also looks forward to engaging industry partners, government agencies, the academia, and research institutions in various forms of collaboration, such as open courses and premise sharing, to support the nation's talent development policy and train creative minds that are capable of leading future industry growth.
