metadata.value: With a growing acknowledgment of gender equality being one of human rights, and adoption
  of SDGs, CSR and ESG policies among corporations around the world, Taiwan, deemed
  pioneer in the race of gender equality in Asia, has also implemented the same for the purpose
  of economic empowerment in women. The study reviews the status of female labors’ rights
  in workplace and analyses how regulations and the implementation of ESG measures could
  help achieve a true gender equality in workplace on the island. The study has organized and
  reviewed the transition of governmental administration responsible for gender equality, all
  kinds of policies regarding gender equality, including encouragement of gender ratio of the
  management in corporations, the legal framework of labor regulations with respect of gender
  issues and the SDG or ESG implementations among corporations regarding the same. With
  the findings presented through article, the study concludes that traditional view of hard laws
  may not be appropriate or effective enough to reach a true gender equality in the workplace
  due to the lack of flexibility while soft laws, e. g., ESG guideline and other associative measures,
  may be more effective from a bottom-up approach. Moreover, the study also concludes
  that Taiwan is on the path to better working conditions through the nature of sustainability
  report disclosed by corporations regardless of the scale of them. Thus, it is likely to achieve
  economic empowerment in women in Taiwan with the promotion of related soft laws policies.
