Two assistants at Taichung Daya District Office are owed wages starting from September. District Office: Payment has been completed

Two business assistants at the Daya District Office in Taichung City have not received their salaries since September this year.

Some netizens reported on Threads that two business assistants (contracted) at the Public Construction Section of Daya District Office in Taichung City have not received their salaries since September this year. Even though the budget is exhausted, their colleagues continue to provide labor services. However, the chief executive has not actively found financial resources to solve the problem. He also proposed the ridiculous idea of ​​"taking salary in turns" and the problem of unpaid wages has not been improved so far.

The Daya District Office stated today that in response to the delay in the salary payment of two business assistants in the Public Utilities and Construction Section, the office attaches great importance to the rights and interests of colleagues. After actively coordinating relevant funds, it has completed the check issuance and payment procedures today (3rd), and the relevant salaries will be received on October 5th. The office has immediately reviewed the relevant fund control and administrative procedures, and will further clarify the attribution of responsibilities and investigate relevant administrative responsibilities to avoid similar situations from happening again.

The Daya District Office emphasized that the city government has always attached great importance to the work rights and interests of colleagues. Mayor Lu Xiuyan has also repeatedly requested that all agencies should properly take care of colleagues and protect their due rights. The office will take this incident as a lesson and strengthen the early warning and control mechanism for budget execution and salary issuance to ensure that employees’ salaries are paid as scheduled.

It is understood that in the 2014 central government general budget, the Legislative Yuan cut a total of 6.6%, a record high. At that time, Minister of Labor Hong Shenhan said in an interview on a radio program that this time the budget will be significantly frozen and cut, and the salary of contracted manpower will be affected.
