SDG 8.2.2 Employment practice unions
NCUE recognises and supports the union and labour rights (freedom of association and collective bargaining) of all our faculty, staff, and students. The specific implementation measures are as follows:
1. In compliance with the Labor Union Act and Civil Servant Association Act, NCUE ensures that all faculty members, staff, and students enjoy the freedom of association and right to collective bargaining. Further, NCUE stipulates measures for holding meetings and setting up various committees in the charter, and drafting and passing by-laws and relevant regulations, so that all faculty members, staff, and students can express their opinion through multiple channels by joining relevant internal organizations or through democratically elected representatives.
2. There are 21 different meetings, committees, and other related organisations on campus. The functional categories and names of these organisations are as follows (see Table 1).
