Since the implementation of amendments to the Labour Standards Law on 1 January 2016 many employers have struggled to demonstrate their compliance. According to the new rules, employees in Taiwan may work for a maximum of eight hours a day or 40 hours per week. In addition, employers are required to keep and maintain attendance records, accurate to the minute, for five years. Given that many companies do not request employees to punch in and out or record their working hours, it has been a challenge for them to prove to authorities that they are in compliance with the law. Even companies that have complied with the law have been subject to fines from labour inspectors for not providing the correct paperwork.

At this event our guest speaker will give a detailed explanation of what employers need to do to ensure compliance with the Taipei Labour Inspection Office's interpretation of the Labour Standards Law, including the processes, form and type of documents the labour inspection office requires.

Among other subjects, the speaker will address the following:
