What does diversity, equality and inclusion mean to you?
"Diversity, equality and inclusion (EDI) is the direction that all sectors need to pursue. In particular, in the field of manufacturing where the 4th industrial revolution has arrived, EDI will be able to induce flexibility in employment, the improvement of the work environment, and qualified results."
