Yili has consistently adhered to the management philosophy that "excellent employees create excellent value." We are committed to creating a diverse, fair, and inclusive work environment for our employees. Through the use of a digital e-learning platform, we aim to enhance both the professional and personal capabilities of our employees. We hope our employees can use Yili as their career platform to generate value for the Yili while enhancing their own professional skills.
To enhance employee engagement, we provide competitive salaries and a range of benefit plans in our employee welfare program, with non-statutory benefits comprising 85% of the total.
Since 2012, the 'Yili Spring Rain Program,' a dedicated initiative for employee care, has focused on the objective of 'enhancing employee value.' This program covers multiple facets of employee well-being, including everyday living requirements, health management, and welfare experiences, delivering holistic care to employees.
Yili provides annual health checks for every employee. In partnership with external organizations, Yili has established the 'E-Health' health service management platform. This platform offers access to top-quality medical resources nationwide and provides comprehensive services including appointment scheduling, report analysis, post-check guidance, and health consultations.
Yili regularly organizes employee health activities such as consultations with medical experts, health lectures, and screenings for high-risk diseases, to promote occupational health knowledge and enhance health awareness among employees. Moreover, Yili provides a 'Harbor of the Heart' staff relaxation room, establishes the 'Yili Care Hotline', and organizes mental health seminars to ensure the well-being of employees' mental health.
We have conducted various activities to develop a better workplace for our employees. For our global employees, we have created "Multicultural Week" to enhance multicultural understanding. For female employees, Yili runs a health care program that includes organizing free screenings for breast and cervical cancer, providing meals and prenatal guidance for pregnant employees, and setting up mother rooms as well as maternity allowances.
We continue to consolidate the compensation management system, which defines the base salary for each position and bonus for performance. In terms of talent motivation, we have developed a diverse combination of short-, medium-, and long-term incentive models, including cash incentives and immaterial incentives.
In 2022, Yili launched a brand-new application, Hui Life, an online welfare platform for employees. The "Hui Life" integrated over 10 diversified welfare resources, including welfare distribution, corporate health checks, internal product purchase and financial support, etc. It meets the diverse needs of employees for inclusive, differentiated, and convenient welfare.
Employees are the most valuable asset of Yili and also the fundamental driving force for our development. As a leading dairy company in China, Yili has developed a talent management system that is aligned with our business strategy. This system provides a first-class career development platform, which enables employees to learn and grow in a smooth development channel. We continuously optimize the links of selection, employment, nurturing and retention in order to inspire employees to continuously refine their professional skills, and accelerate the construction of high-skilled talent for new era. We have consistently improved the five major channels for career development, and constructed two major career development engines for management and professional to spearhead targeted talent development and cultivate "outstanding value creators".

Under the Yili Global Talent Development Center, we established the "Leadership Development Center", "Professionalism Development Center" and "Digital Learning Center".
