Taiwan MOL Amends Occupational Accident Prevention Subsidy Rules
Project management
Taiwan's Ministry of Labor amended regulations on subsidies for occupational accident prevention and worker rehabilitation campaigns, introducing a second application window, lifting project limits per director, and streamlining reviews, effective January 1, 2027.
To encourage participation from civil groups and medical institutions in promoting occupational safety and worker rehabilitation, Taiwan's Ministry of Labor amended the subsidy regulations for occupational accident prevention and rehabilitation. The revision modifies rules for advocacy and campaign projects. Previously, applications were accepted only until the end of August each year. Under the new rules, authorities may announce an additional application window before the end of the following February. In addition, the rule restricting project directors to a single application per year has been removed, and reviews will be conducted directly by the authority to expedite approvals. The amended provisions take effect on January 1, 2027.
Key takeaways
- The Ministry of Labor introduced a secondary application mechanism, allowing new calls for proposals before late February.
- The restriction limiting project directors of advocacy grants to one proposal per year has been removed.
- Advocacy projects will now be reviewed and approved directly by the competent authority, taking effect January 1, 2027.
