COUNTERMEASURES: The TRA said another railway union has agreed to work during the holiday and that it is training reserve staff to take over if neededBy Abraham Gerber and Shelley Shan / Staff reportersThe Taiwan Railway Union will follow through with its threat to “take a legal holiday” over the Lunar New Year to protest the Taiwan Railways Administration’s (TRA) unwillingness to negotiate labor terms, union members said yesterday in a Taipei rally.About 10 union members and their supporters gathered on the west side of the Taipei Railway Station building, shouting slogans and accusing the agency of forcing employees to work overtime during the holiday crunch next week.Union president Wang Jieh (王傑) said a petition to take time off during the holiday had been signed by more than 1,000 of about 4,000 employees responsible for station and train operations, vowing delays and cancelations in response to the agency’s refusal to negotiate over holiday shifts and overtime hours.“The work we normally do is that of laborers, not civil servants, but the TRA wants to use our status as civil servants to pin us down,” he said, adding that agency officials had threatened to mark employees who refused to work as “absent without leave,” violating a Ministry of Labor ruling.Civil servants and most other public employees are not governed by the Labor Standards Act (勞動基準法) and can be compelled to work over holidays under the Civil Service Act (公務員服務法).However, the Labor Standards Act states that in cases where workers are considered both civil servan打工渡假 英文ts and laborers, Civil Service Act standards apply to their salaries, retirement and insurance, “as well as other cases in which it provides better benefits” than the Labor Standards Act.“Even though we are considered both civil servants and laborers, our national holidays are supposed to be governed by the Labor Standards Act, which requires employers to ask workers whether or not they are willing to work,” Taiwan Railway Union secretary Hsiao Nung-yu (蕭農瑀) said.Union director Tseng Fan-ye (曾繁宇) accused the agency of trying to cut the number of platform staff, which he said could undermine safety because there would be fewer staff to monitor trains and passenger traffic.Hiring more employees to allow shift reductions has been a key demand of the union, which was founded last year to compete with the existing company union.Deputy Minister of Transportation and Communications Wang Kwo-tsai (王國材) said after a Cabinet meeting yesterday morning that the agency would continue to communicate with the union and has been training reserve staff to fill a potential personnel shortage.“It would take time to address the union’s demands, such as increasing staff numbers. The TRA is working on meeting those expectations,” Wang said.The TRA has also discussed the situation with the company union, the Taiwan Railway Labor Union, which understands that some of its appeals are not going to be addressed immediately, Wang said.The group has said it will cooperate fully with the agency’s plan to transport homebound passengers during the holidays, he said.Asked about the possibility of 1,000 workers going on strike, Wang said that it would affect railway transport during the most important holiday of the year, but that the TRA has trained substitutes to meet a potential staff shortage.All reserve staff have undergone three months of training and served as apprentices for 10 to 14 days before being added to the work roster, the agency said.新聞來源:TAIPEI TIMES

凱擘、全球數位和佳訊三大頻道代理如何學英語商去年遭公平會總共重罰新台幣1.26億元,公平會昨天(19日)邀集這三家業者要求說明具體改正情形,但是卻遭業者以「商業慣例」回應。根據公平法規定,三家業者若再不於最後期限內改正,恐怕得面對公平會的連續處罰或追究行為人的刑責。

凱擘、全球數位和佳訊三大頻道代理商去年遭公平會總共重罰新台幣1.26億元,並要求限期改善。雖然三家業者以分期付款方式繳交罰款,但是對於新進系統業者依行政戶數15%(MG15%)支付最低保證戶數的要求,仍以「商業慣例」來回應。

依據公平法第三十六條規定,「違反第十九條或第二十條規定,經主管機關依第四十條第一項規定限期令停止、改正其行為或採取必要更正措施,而屆期未停止、改正其行為或未採取必要更正措施,或停止後再為線上學英語 kk音標相同違反行為者,處行為人二年以下有期徒刑、拘役或科或併科新台幣五千萬元以下罰金。」也就是說,三家業者若再不於最後期限內改正,恐怕得面對公平會的連續處罰或追究行為人的刑責。

據了解,公平會依法裁罰的對象雖然是頻道代理商,但涉及刑責的部分,則必須列出行為人,通常指的是真正具有決策權的個人,因此依據業界的普遍認知,除了中嘉集團因為股權移轉中,凱擘的決策者和佳訊的決策者,可能成為後續法律追訴的當事人。

由於公平會正副主委和部分委員任期即將在一月底屆滿,公平會對頻道代理商的鐵腕措施能否貫徹實施?外界正密切關注。

(中央社記者李晉緯台北20日電)SBL富邦在上季最佳洋將貝倫表現不如預期的情況下,決定再度更換洋將,這次找回的是曾幫助台啤在上季奪冠的歐布萊恩。 超級籃球聯賽(SBL)富邦勇士隊,本季開打前不斷招兵買馬,洋將上也選擇曾打過台銀的李恩(LiamMcMorrow),但李恩本季平均每場比賽出賽30分鐘,拿下15分排名第7,抓下13個籃板排名第5,表現尚可,但0.4阻攻排在18名,屢成討論話題,最終在出賽20場後遭到釋出。 之後富邦找回上季以平均28.4分、14.8籃板,拿下SBL的得分、籃板雙冠王,並獲選「年度最佳洋將」的貝倫(Earl Barron)救援,但他2戰下來平均16分與11.5籃板,不符球隊對他的期待,因此遭到撤換。 歐布萊恩(Patrick O’Bryant)是上季台啤奪冠的功臣,本季他有平均14分、13.5籃板的成績,但因為體能太差,加上一直以來的「態度」問題,台啤在讓他打了4戰後,雙方就分道揚鑣。1060120
