flag Migrant workers in Taipei protested Taiwan’s 12-year work limit, demanding its removal to retain skilled labor.

flag Migrant workers in Taipei protested the 12-year work limit, with around 1,000 demonstrators demanding its removal, arguing it forces skilled workers to leave despite years of service and contributions to Taiwan’s economy. flag Advocates say the government’s 2022 program allowing exceptions is ineffective, with only 4.7% of blue-collar workers qualifying due to employer control and low pay. flag Critics also oppose a new government plan that incentivizes hiring migrants by raising local wages, calling it divisive. flag Workers and groups like the Migrant Empowerment Network urge ending the cap entirely to retain experienced labor and reduce reliance on brokers.
