According to the LSL, Taiwanese enterprises have to provide their employees with a pension plan. Under the old labor standards regulations, an employee could apply for a retirement pension only if he or she had worked in the same company for 25 years. But the average length of employment in most small- and medium-sized businesses is 13 years, which meant that 90 % didn't qualify for a pension.
台灣的企業是依據勞基法來提供員工退休保障，但勞基法舊制規定，在同一企業任職滿二十五年才能申請退休，而中小企業平均壽命只有十三年，90 % 的勞工根本拿不到退休金。
