The Company’s performance appraisal is divided into the following four categories: in terms of performance objectives, Onewo has set performance objectives consistent with the Company's objectives for employees and has urged them to implement the objectives; in terms of personal performance evaluation, Onewo conducts a comprehensive performance appraisal of employees annually on the basis of three major evaluation dimensions: key performance, values and behaviors as well as qualities and abilities; in terms of team performance evaluation, Onewo has established an organizational objective evaluation system of “top-down decomposition and bottom-up support”; in terms of process management, Onewo continuously checks the implementation of the performance appraisal plan and makes timely adjustments, and carries out agile dialogues on personal performance with employees to obtain their evaluation and feedback, assisting employees in improving their personal performance by optimizing the management of the process of objective achievement.
