碩士 === 國立政治大學 === 勞工研究所 === 97 === This thesis is about a plant trade union’s history. In this case, this company faced very serious financial crisis from the end of 1990s. The workers were owed salary for 3 months and then suffered serious salary-deduction problem after a failed wild-strike in Oct, 2001. It’s quite clear that the worker’s collective bargaining power is very weak in this plant and the internal democracy of this union is critical. I try to answer such problems such as, why can’t the workers unite under the leadership of their union committee members and fight back? How comes the labor movement in Taiwan do nothing for this plant trade union?
