台灣《職業安全衛生法》職場霸凌防治專章已於2026年7月1日施行。最常見的誤解，是以為員工人數少的微型或新創企業不受規範。

事實上，即使勞工未達10人，雇主仍負有預防及立即有效處置的義務，完全不作為就可能觸法。

新制的重點，從申訴案件的線上登錄義務、依規模分級的防治責任、調查前的協調機制，到被申訴人為最高負責人時改由地方主管機關介入，都有明文規範。我們也整理了微型與新創企業可以立刻著手的三項準備：內部調查人員訓練、主管教育訓練、以及定期複訓的紀錄留存。

與其等第一件申訴上門才倉促應對，不如趁施行初期把制度與人員準備到位。如果您對職場霸凌防治、調查或處理有任何疑問，歡迎與我們聯繫。

Yesterday, March 11, 2026, Maiya Mai and Peter Lin presented “Running a Startup in Taiwan: Legal and Employment Issues After Incorporation” at FutureWard Coworking 共同空間.

We addressed the critical legal and labor compliance challenges founders face immediately after setup. Maiya Mai provided a practical guide to key obligations under the Company Act and offered a bird’s-eye view of the Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA). Peter Lin shared insights on lawful unilateral termination initiated by employers and the Principle of Last Resort, and discussed why clear probationary clauses are vital in employment contracts.

Our goal was to equip entrepreneurs with a clear legal roadmap for scaling their businesses in Taiwan.

The presentation material in the comment section is intended to briefly summarize the talk.
