The Empirical Research of Taiwanese Enterprises¡¦ HRM Policy in accordance to China¡¦s Economic Transition.

Since Mainland China opened its market, its strengths and low-cost labor appeals to
foreign investors and manufacturers, resulting in rapid growth of overall economics.
Several investment factors in Taiwan, including rising land price due to economic growth,
rising costs of labor, and shortage of labor force, drive Taiwanese firms to base
manufacturing plants in Mainland China because of its cheap labor and massive scale of
labor force. The aim of this research is to investigate the way in which human resource
department adjusts its strategy as a part of enterprise transformation from labor
orientation to marketing orientation under the influences of China¡¦s policy of economic
transformation. The case study in this research is an outstanding enterprise, having three
oversea plants, in southern Taiwan. The analysis and research results are shown as
follows.
(1) The introduction of the Labor Contract Law of the People¡¦s Republic of China
and the Social Insurance Law of the People¡¦s Republic of China brings more
disadvantages than benefits to enterprises. The laws improve Chinese laborers¡¦ basic
rights at the expense of increasing management risks and labor management costs from
Taiwanese firms.
(2) Under the influences of global economic crisis, policies to downsize
organization structure lead to a loss of talents, but enterprises should enhance its
education training, reinforce organizational culture and vision, and speeding up the
process of localizing talents.
(3) Propelling domestic demand is a policy to sustain economic growth; however,
as farmers¡¦ income increases, it is more difficult for enterprises to recruit laborers.
Enterprises should be cautious on designing long-term plans of human resources.
(4) The Foxconn incident is not an individual case. It shows that an enterprise
should provide material assurance as well as spiritual concerns to employees. The
butterfly effect of pay raise will speed up enterprise transformation and reach the
long-term goal of paralleling Chinese plants to global market.
(5) It is crucial for enterprises to provide material assistance to expatriates as well
as mental well-being of the employees and the families.
