Almost two years since the onset of the global coronavirus pandemic, governments and corporations are still struggling to adjust to the new reality. Taiwan’s labour laws have not been adapted to the new phenomena of hybrid working and the gig economy. Meanwhile corporations are facing the challenges of attracting and retaining talent given the demands of employees which vary greatly according to industry sector, work function, age, and gender (to name just a few).

At this forum, our speakers will provide a comprehensive update on the current status and future direction of Taiwan’s labour laws and offer some best practices on how to satisfy the variety of needs of employees, and to keep them engaged and productive in the hybrid working era.

Among other topics, the following will be covered:

• How to navigate Taiwan’s labour laws for hybrid working – tips for employers
• How companies should optimise benefits programmes to attract and retain talent in terms of portfolio costs, employee experience, administration and operations, analytics, insights, and reporting
• Best practice sharing of employee benefits programmes and how to keep employees healthy, engaged, and productive in the hybrid working era.
