Careers

At DFO, we are committed to protecting the rights and interests of our employees even after they leave the workforce. In accordance with the Labor Standards Act and the Labor Pension Act, we have established a clear and lawful retirement system, including contribution mechanisms, eligibility criteria, and application procedures.

📌 Retirement System

1. Labor Standards Act (Pre-2005):
   Retirement payments are calculated based on years of service and the employee’s average salary during the six months before retirement. The company contributes 2% of the employee's monthly salary to a designated account at the Bank of Taiwan.
2. Labor Pension Act (Post-2005):
   The company contributes 6% of the employee's monthly salary to an individual pension account managed by the Bureau of Labor Insurance.
3. Applicability:
• Employees starting on or after July 1, 2005, fall under the Labor Pension Act.
• Employees hired before July 1, 2005, had five years to opt for the Labor Pension Act or stay under the Labor Standards Act.
• If no choice was made, the default is the Labor Standards Act system. This system is backed by a certified actuary's report.
