SDG8.2.4 Employment policy modern slavery

NCUE firmly opposes forced labour, modern slavery, human trafficking, and child labour. We have formulated regulations to protect workers’ rights and outline their obligations, which are described below.

1. The government of the Republic of China has formulated the Human Trafficking Prevention Act to prevent human trafficking and protect the rights and interests of victims. In accordance with this law, we undertake not to engage in any situations that involve forced labour, modern slavery, or human trafficking.
2. We strictly comply with the provisions under Article 44 of the Labour Standards Act and confirm that we do not recruit any child labourer over the age of 15 but under the age of 16 to work on campus.
3. The regulations stated below have been clearly formulated by NCUE, and their contents are regularly revised to keep up with the times. No illegal acts such as forced labour or slavery are permitted, and the rights and obligations of workers are guaranteed.
