Analyze Taiwan labor law fundamentals under the Labor Standards Act including working hours, overtime, leave, and termination rules.

What it does

Law Labor is an agent skill from asgard-ai-platform/skills. Analyze Taiwan labor law fundamentals under the Labor Standards Act including working hours, overtime, leave, and termination rules. Use this skill when the user needs to understand employment obligations, calculate overtime pay, evaluate whether a termination is lawful, or design compliant HR policies — even if they say 'how much overtime pay do I owe', 'can I fire this employee', 'what leave are employees entitled to', or 'are we complying with labor law'.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `examples/sample_scenario.md`, `references/labor-pension.md` and `references/lsa-full-text.md`).

The repository describes itself as: 301 open-source coding agent skills across 22 domains — methodology, judgment & gotchas packaged as Claude Agent Skills for the Asgard AI Platform. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user needs to understand employment obligations
  • Calculate overtime pay
  • Evaluate whether a termination is lawful
  • Design compliant HR policies — even if they say how much overtime pay do I owe

Example prompts

  • “how much overtime pay do I owe”
  • “can I fire this employee”
  • “what leave are employees entitled to”
  • “/law-labor”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 4e7f4f8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Law Labor loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 118 tokens; SKILL.md has 569 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~118
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.8k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Taiwan Labor Law (Labor Standards Act)

Overview

The Labor Standards Act (勞基法, LSA) sets minimum labor standards in Taiwan. It covers working hours, overtime, leave, wages, and termination. These are MINIMUMS — employers can offer better but not worse terms. This skill focuses on Taiwan-specific requirements.

Framework

IRON LAW: LSA Is a Floor, Not a Ceiling

Everything in the LSA represents the MINIMUM employer obligation.
Employment contracts can exceed these standards but NEVER go below them.
A contract clause that provides less than LSA minimums is void even if
the employee signed it. "The employee agreed to it" is not a defense.
Working Hours & Overtime
RuleStandard
Regular hours8 hours/day, 40 hours/week
Overtime cap46 hours/month (can extend to 54 with labor-management agreement)
Rest day1 regular day off (例假) + 1 rest day (休息日) per week

Overtime Pay Calculation:

PeriodRate
Weekday overtime, first 2 hours1.34x regular hourly rate
Weekday overtime, hours 3-41.67x regular hourly rate
Rest day (休息日) overtime, first 2 hours1.34x (minimum 4 hours counted)
Rest day overtime, hours 3-81.67x
Rest day overtime, hours 9-122.67x
Regular day off (例假) overtime2x + compensatory day off
National holiday overtime2x
Leave Entitlements
TypeEntitlement
Annual leave (特休)6 months: 3 days → 1 year: 7 days → 2 years: 10 days → 3-5 years: 14 days → 5-10 years: 15 days → 10+ years: +1 day per year (max 30)
Sick leave (病假)30 days/year at half pay (hospitalization: additional 1 year)
Personal leave (事假)14 days/year, unpaid
Maternity leave (產假)8 weeks at full pay (after 6 months employment)
Paternity leave (陪產假)7 days at full pay
Menstrual leave (生理假)1 day/month (first 3 counted as sick leave at half pay; additional at no pay)
Termination Rules

Employer can terminate WITH notice (Art. 11):

  • Business closure or transfer
  • Operating losses or business contraction
  • Force majeure suspension > 1 month
  • Business nature change requiring workforce reduction
  • Employee clearly unable to perform duties

Notice periods:

TenureNotice Required
3 months - 1 year10 days
1 - 3 years20 days
3+ years30 days

Employer can terminate WITHOUT notice (Art. 12):

  • Misrepresentation at hiring
  • Violence or serious insult toward employer/coworkers
  • Criminal sentence (not probation)
  • Serious breach of contract or work rules
  • Deliberate damage to equipment/products
  • Absence without leave for 3+ consecutive days or 6+ days in a month

Severance pay: 0.5 months' average wage per year of service (new system under Labor Pension Act)

Examples

Correct Application

Scenario: Employee works 10 hours on a Tuesday (regular workday). Base monthly salary: NT$50,000.

Calculation:

  • Hourly rate: NT$50,000 / 30 / 8 = NT$208.3
  • First 2 overtime hours: NT$208.3 × 1.34 × 2 = NT$558.2
  • Total overtime pay: NT$558 ✓
Incorrect Application
  • "The employee signed a contract agreeing to no overtime pay" → Void. LSA overtime rates are minimum standards that cannot be waived by contract. Violates Iron Law: LSA is a floor.

Gotchas

  • Exempt vs non-exempt: Taiwan's LSA covers most workers. Certain categories (managers, supervisors, specific industries designated by the Ministry of Labor) may have modified rules, but the exemptions are NARROW. Don't assume management = exempt.
  • Attendance records are mandatory: Employers must maintain daily attendance records for at least 5 years. Failure to do so creates a presumption in favor of the employee's claims.
  • Unused annual leave = cash out: Unused special leave at year-end or termination must be paid out in cash. "Use it or lose it" policies are illegal.
  • Labor inspection: The Ministry of Labor conducts inspections. Penalties for LSA violations range from NT$20,000 to NT$1,000,000 and repeat offenders are publicly named.
  • This is educational guidance, not legal advice: Taiwan labor law is complex and frequently amended. Consult a labor attorney or the Ministry of Labor for specific situations.
