Attendance and Leave Regulations for Project Personnel

Postdoctoral research fellows and full-time assistants are required to sign in and out of work during the same flexible working hours as those for staff members. They may only sign out of work 9 hours (including a 1-hour lunch break) after they sign in. Project personnel must sign in and out from the fixed IP address assigned to them. Part-time project personnel must sign in and out through the University’s attendance/leave management system based on the actual time they arrive at and leave work.

Service Medals

Pursuant to the applicable regulations, employees with outstanding service performance may be awarded a service medal at the time of their retirement, separation, resignation, or death.

Faculty Appeals

Faculty members may file an appeal against administrative measures which they believe to be illegal or damaging to their rights, or if they believe the University has failed to act on a lawful request in violation of their rights.

National Health Insurance Application

Employees who wish to apply for NHI coverage for themselves or their dependents may visit the NHI and Labor Insurance Application and Change System (link available on the Personnel Department website) and provide their or their dependents’ personal information and the starting date of the coverage.

Health Examination Subsidy

Quota-based faculty members, civil servants, technicians, and custodians over the age of 40 are eligible for the health examination subsidy every other year.

Faculty Evaluations

Each top-level unit will receive requests via official letter to conduct evaluations of its faculty members and report the evaluation results to the Personnel Department and the University.

Labor Insurance

To file a labor insurance claim, download and fill out the appropriate form on the Bureau of Labor Insurance website and submit it to the Personnel Department, which will review the form and attach a seal of approval.

Work Permits for International Faculty Members

International faculty members are required to submit a scanned copy of their highest diploma and passport information page (passport must be valid) and an electronic copy of their headshot to the responsible person of their respective department so that the University can request a work permit from the Ministry of Education for such them. If approved, the hiring academic unit must assist the faculty member with securing a visa and alien residence certificate. Please note that visa requirements may vary for individuals of different nationalities, and it is recommended that each unit’s responsible person first consult with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs as to whether a prospective faculty member is eligible for a visa. This applies to the appointment of all international full-/part-time faculty members, project faculty members, Ministry of Education Yushan Scholars, and visiting personnel.

Retirement, Pensions, and Extensions of Service

To apply for retirement, faculty members must submit a photocopy of their household registration transcript, postal savings passbook cover, and designated civil service pension account passbook cover; the original copy of their teaching certificate (if certified to teach at multiple levels of education, all valid certificates); and a 1-inch photo.

To apply for survivor’s benefits, the family of the deceased faculty member need to submit the original copy of a death certificate or a household registration transcript indicating the faculty member’s death, the household registration transcript indicating each surviving family member’s right to inheritance, and a transcript of each eligible family member’s individual household registration. A photocopy of the chief beneficiary’s bank account passbook (must be a postal savings account or designated civil service pension account) and proof of burial/cremation are also required.

To request an extension of service, the provisions of the NCHU Directives Governing the Extension of Service by Professors and Associate Professors apply.
