In May 2024, JA Solar officially signed the Women's Empowerment Principles (WEPs) of the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women), demonstrating the Company's unwavering support for women's rights and its vision of achieving an equal, inclusive, and harmonious society.

Prior to that, JA Solar officially committed to joining the "Forward Faster" initiative launched by the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) to accelerate progress in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the field of gender equality action.

JA Solar upholds the principle of fair and just employment, adheres to the talent concept of diversification and inclusive development, and opposes all forms of workplace discrimination. Meanwhile, the Company has implemented projects such as "grid parity" for photovoltaic, making contributions to ensure fairness and justice in the global energy transition.

JA Solar released the Human Rights Policy, explaining how the company identifies and deals with any potential or actual negative impacts on human rights in its organization and supply chain, and demonstrating its commitment to preventing, deterring or minimizing any actual or potential negative impacts on human rights.

In light of JA Solar's active efforts to build an open, transparent and democratic communication mechanism, each base has established a labor union committee, which has developed collective agreements and documents such as the Collective Agreement, the Collective Agreement for the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Female Employees, and the Collective Negotiation Agreement on Salaries. These agreements are updated every year to ensure that the rights and interests of employees are protected. The labor union regularly holds a staff representative meeting, in which employee representatives participate and make constructive comments and suggestions on behalf of employees to provide important reference for the Company's decision-making parties.
