Xu Xinying abandons her labor politics and promotes "One Hour of Safe Parenting" and AI function upgrades

Xu Xinying put forward a number of labor political opinions today, among which "an hour of peace of mind for childcare" should be given to parents, who can leave work one hour early every day without worrying about a salary cut.

Kuomintang Hsinchu County Mayor candidate Xu Xinying proposed a new labor policy today, emphasizing "career-friendly, secure work, and functional upgrading," which includes the promotion of a "one-hour peace of mind for childcare" system. For employees with children under 12 years old who need to adjust their working hours due to pick-up and drop-off, etc., companies are encouraged to provide childcare support that reduces working hours by one hour per day without reducing wages, and the county government provides corresponding subsidies to the company.

Xu Xinying said that under the protection of existing labor rights and interests, if she is elected as county magistrate, the county government will assist companies to introduce flexible working systems and help companies find appropriate ways to balance operations and employees' lives based on the characteristics of different industries. It also promised to promote "One Hour of Safe Parenting" and encourage companies to reduce working hours by one hour per day. The county government will share the salary costs incurred by reducing working hours to create a friendlier workplace for small and medium-sized enterprises in the county.

For women who are preparing to re-employ or start a business, Xu Xinying will use the "Women's Start Again Plan" to provide support such as start-up funds of up to 50,000 yuan. In order to strengthen the support system between workers and labor unions suffering from occupational accidents, she proposed "Safety at Work" assistance so that workers can receive more complete assistance once they are injured at work, their rights are damaged, or they face labor disputes.

In the face of workplace bullying, she emphasized "zero tolerance" and declared that she would strengthen labor inspections and workplace rights protection. At the same time, regarding the issue of how workers can keep up with AI and industrial transformation, Xu Xinying proposed a "functional upgrade" strategy, which will provide subsidies for the use of labor AI tools, promote labor AI upgrade plans for traditional industries and small and medium-sized enterprises, and establish AI functional training centers to integrate Zhuke, Industrial Research Institute, colleges and universities, vocational training institutions and corporate resources, so that the AI ​​transformation will not only involve Zhuke engineers, but also give everyone the opportunity to empower themselves with digital capabilities.
