Everlight Scrapped Unpaid Leave Plan

Last Friday , Everlight has shown its “deeply sorry” for the anxieties it had caused society because of the unpaid leave plan. And it has scrapped the plan .

After the company has released its unpaid leave plan,some critics have highlighted the fact that Everlight Chairman Ye Yin-fu’s was recently able to donate NT$100 million to his alma mater, National Taipei University of Technology.They have also questioned the necessity of the furlough plan in light of the company’s profitability.

Everlight posted pre-tax profit of NT$538 million for the first quarter of this year and NT$425.86 million for the second quarter.

In response to Everlight’s decision, Council of Labor Affairs (CLA) Minister Wang Ju-hsuan praised the company’s willingness to “heed the voices of soceity” and act in the best interest of its workers.

Wang reaffirmed the government’s commitment to protecting the rights of workers, saying that the CLA will never condone any “unnecessary” unpaid leave schemes by companies in good financial status.
