Benefits of Hiring in Taiwan
Heart of Asia
Taiwan is located in the center of East Asia. You can easily travel to major Asian cities – Tokyo, Seoul, Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Jakarta, Bangkok, etc – within 2-5 hours. Setting up an offshore or remote development team in Taiwan would help you reach other potential markets.
Top talent at affordable costs
Taiwan boasts a high-quality education system, particularly in areas such as science, engineering, and information technology. It shines in the field of innovative technology, with many businesses and research and development institutions dedicated to the development of new technologies and products. This is especially true in sectors like semiconductors, electronic components, and information communication technology, where it has achieved outstanding accomplishment.
3rd-Best Investment Destination
In the latest U.S. Business Environment Risk Intelligence (BERI) report, Taiwan is named the third-best place to invest worldwide, and the best place for investment in Asia. Both a well-established legal system (rigorous laws and regulations on the protection of investors and property rights) and a free political environment in Taiwan contributed to the success. Most importantly, Taiwan is always seeking technological advances and innovation, which can in turn bring new value to your business.
Understanding Taiwan's Labor law
A Guide for Employers
Understanding the local labor laws is crucial for operating successfully in any foreign market. Here's a brief overview of some key aspects of Taiwan's labor law that you, as an employer, should know:
Work Hours and Overtime
According to Taiwan's Labor Standards Act, employees should not work more than eight hours a day or 40 hours a week. Work done beyond these hours is considered overtime and must be compensated at a higher rate.
Leave Benefits
Taiwanese labor law provides various types of leave, such as:
• Annual Leave: Employees are entitled to paid annual leave, the duration of which depends on their length of service.
• Maternity Leave: Pregnant employees are entitled to maternity leave before and after childbirth.
• Paternity Leave: Fathers are entitled to paternity leave around the time of their child's birth.
• Sick Leave: Employees are entitled to sick leave, but the rules can vary depending on the circumstances.
Rest Days
Employees in Taiwan are entitled to at least one regular day off and one rest day per week. If an employee works on these days, they must receive additional compensation.
Labor Insurance & National Health Insurance
All employees must be enrolled in Taiwan’s Labor Insurance and NHI programs. These are mandatory and employer contributions are required.
Minimum Wage
Taiwan has a legislated minimum wage that employers must adhere to. This rate is subject to periodic reviews and adjustments.
