| Summary: | 碩士 === 東海大學 === 社會學系 === 106 === Using data are from the 2005 and 2015 Taiwan Social Change Survey (TSCS), we attempt to analyze the differences between standard and nonstandard workers, and to measure the mobility opportunity of them. Additionally, we did in-depth interviews to understand the work history, achievement, problem, interpersonal relationship, and work rights of standard and nonstandard workers.
According to our data analyses, we found that years of schooling, marital status, and work sector will affect workers’ mobility opportunity. The longer the years of schooling, the less likely to maintain nonstandard or downward to employment. Married workers are less likely to maintain or downward to nonstandard employment, compared to those who are single, divorced, or widowed. People who work for large and medium scaled companies are less likely to maintain or downward to nonstandard employment. On the other hand, our in-depth interview results show that the nonstandard workers in the public sector face more challenges when they are converted into standard workers and the only way is to pass the promotion exam. Nevertheless, their work place distress, interpersonal relationship, and work rights are not quite different from those of standard workers. In sum, we conclude that the nonstandard workers are separated from standard workers in many ways, however, their mobility opportunities still exist in Taiwan’s labor markets.
