While striving to increase profit and market share, WPG actively adopts ESG practices for sustainable development and announces the introduction of “Employee Stock Ownership Trust” (ESOT) to benefit employees and attract talents. Employees are encouraged to enroll the Trust by deducting certain amount of their salary to purchase company shares, where WPG offers matching amount as additional benefit. The ESOT is designed to assist employees with their retirements plans as well as to enhance ownership culture that results in the continued success of WPG. Over 90% of eligible employees have participated ESOT since the introduction in January 2021. The average percentage of monthly salary deducted is 6.8%.
WPG deeply believes that it is our talented employees that set us apart. We encourage our employees to become shareholders and business partners of WPG through ESOT with the aim to create a sense of ownership and to share WPG’s success directly. On the other hand, we believe improved compensation policy and employee benefit help advance WPG’s sustainable development.
