亞旭電腦為華碩電腦100%全資擁有的子公司，而有關亞旭欺壓移工和血汗品牌指控已逐漸引起廣泛關注。遺憾的是，真正有決定權的華碩完全不出面與工會協商，華碩和亞旭人資各打了一次電話詢問，之後就毫無下文。我們相信亞旭所有的營運與對待員工的措施實則都是華碩所授權決定，但華碩卻躲在後面，隱藏自己作為實質有權力的黑手的角色。

華碩關係企業工會和亞旭企業工會在此宣布：我們不會讓華碩可以閃躲，工會之後的行動主要也會朝向華碩，並且本會也呼籲華碩善盡企業社會責任並且珍惜長久經營的品牌形象，儘速出面與本會協商解決相關爭議。

華碩關係企業工會、亞旭企業工會的幹部們將親自出席記者會，向社會大眾公布公司多項重大問題，要求華碩公司拿出誠意，與工會協商。

其中重大問題包括：

1. 完全違背公平聘僱及RBA的規定，至今均未退還移工海外仲介費的債務（每人平均近七萬台幣）和台灣的仲介服務費（前三年共六萬台幣）等相關費用。

2. 傳言桃園廠準備遷廠至越南，五月以來卻鼓勵移工自行轉換，規避資遣費與大量解僱勞保護法的規範。

3. 桃園廠三月要求移工遷宿舍，要求每人每月電費多繳2000元以上，宿舍費也每月多扣1000元。

4. 其他多項違法或歧視待遇。

Asus Group accused of exploiting Migrant Workers;

Union request the company to talk with sincerity!

Askey Computer is a subsidiary and owned by Asus Computer 100%, and accusations of Askey’s violation of labor rights of migrant workers and sweatshop brands have gradually attracted widespread attention. Regrettably, Asus, which really has the right to make decisions, has not come forward to negotiate with the union at all. Human Resource department from Asus and Askey made a phone call to us respectively for a short inquiry, but no further information after that. We believe all of Askey’s operations and employee treatment measures are actually authorized by ASUS, but ASUS is still hiding its role as a powerful black hand behind.

Asus Group Labor Union (AGLU) and Askey Labor Union (ALU) hereby declare: We will not allow Asus to dodge. The union’s subsequent actions will mainly be directed towards Asus. The union also calls on Asus to fulfill its corporate social responsibilities and cherish its brand image, and come forward to negotiate with the union for all disputes as soon as possible.

All officers from AGLU and ALU will attend the press conference in person to announce to the public many of the company’s major issues and require ASUS to show sincerity and negotiate with the unions.

The major issues include:

1. Askey violates the fair employment guideline and and RBA regulations completely: all the loans from the placement fees abroad for all migrant workers (averagely of nearly NT$70,000 or US$ 2185 per person) and the monthly service fees in Taiwan (a total of NT$60,000 or US$1873 in the first three years) and other related expenses are never refunded until now.
2. There are rumors that the Askey will close its Taoyuan factory and move to Vietnam. At the same time, Askey has been encouraging its migrant workers to apply to transfer to other companies by their own since May this year. This is a rampant violation and evasion of the legal responsibilities of severance pay and the Act for Worker Protection of Mass Redundancy.
3. Migrant workers in Askey Taoyuan factory were demanded to move to a different dormitory, and the electricity bill was more than NT$2,000 (US$62) per person per month, and the dormitory fees were higher for NT$1,000 per month.
4. Various kinds of other violations and discriminatory treatments.

Welcome to come to interview and report.
