Today I received last month’s salary, and after calculating it carefully, I was really speechless.
Working hours are 9:00–18:30, with a 1.5-hour lunch break. However, they calculate all personal and sick leave using 9.5 hours. If you take a half-day of personal leave in the afternoon, they deduct 6.5 hours, which includes the 1.5-hour break.
Isn’t regular leave supposed to be calculated as 8 hours?!
If they calculated it as 4 hours for a half-day of personal leave and 8 hours for a full day of sick leave, my salary last month would have been NT$400 more than what they paid.
(Although it isn’t a huge difference, it feels terrible when they underpay you.)
However, when I calculate it using 6.5 hours of personal leave plus 9.5 hours of sick leave, it comes out almost the same as what they paid.
They must be manipulating the salary structure and the number of hours counted for leave! I asked other people, and they experienced the same thing. I’ve worked for a long time and have never encountered anything like this!
Anyone considering working for this company should think twice! Don’t be easily deceived by the boss’s grand promises and talk yourself into joining!
The employee turnover there is extremely high! Before I left, I watched three colleagues resign one after another. Someone who has stayed for three months is considered a veteran.
