MOL working on raising female re-employmentBACK TO WORK? The government would offer companies willing to reduce working hours NT$3,000 in monthly subsidies to help women better balance work and life, Ho said. The goal is to reintroduce 70,000 women to the job market and raise the female labor participation rate to 53 percent, Ho said. According to the Key Points for Trialing the Special Subsidized Employment Project to Alleviate the Labor Shortage (專案缺工就業獎勵試辦實施要點), those working full-time at “short-staffed positions” are eligible for a monthly subsidy of NT$6,000. People working full-time in remote areas or outlying islands would be entitled to an additional NT$3,000.
