Abstract:	台灣政府於1992年通過一項法律，允許從泰國、菲律賓和印度尼西亞輸入工人。根據該法律，這些工人必須持有一年簽證，並且只能通過私人招聘機構引進。因此，當時泰國工人必須向這些機構支付高額的服務費和安置費。為了促進這一進程，泰國和台灣政府允許兩國的招聘機構合作，台灣的招聘公司在泰國設立分支機構，在當地招聘工人。 2002年，兩國政府達成協議，實施一項政府計劃，使台灣雇主能夠在沒有私營職業介紹所參與的情況下僱用泰國工人。因此，泰國非技術和半技術工人可以在三個條件下合法地在台灣工作：1）政府渠道，2）私人招聘機構渠道，3）重新入境。泰國海外就業管理局的數據顯示，泰國勞工通過政府渠道進入台灣的比例為：2018年為0.39%，2019年為0.8%，2020年為0.58%，2022年為0.6%。這些數字表明政府渠道可能並不高效。儘管有多種渠道允許泰國工人進入台灣而無需向泰國招聘機構支付費用，但大多數泰國工人仍然選擇通過這些機構來台灣工作。本研究採用二手數據進行內容分析，並對 23 人進行了深度訪談。目的是比較政府渠道派遣泰國工人到台灣的優點、缺點和局限性。隨後，我們試圖找出泰國工人更喜歡私人招聘機構而不是政府渠道的原因。最後，我們為泰國和台灣政府提供了政策建議。我們還建議泰國政府應通過減少不必要的步驟、整合所有政府機構的信息以及與私營部門的合作來加強其流程。另一方面，台灣政府應完善法律法規，使其更適合台灣雇主和泰國工人。 The Taiwanese government passed a law in 1992 allowing the import of workers from Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia. Under this law, these workers were required to hold a one-year visa and could only be brought in through private recruitment agencies. Consequently, Thai workers had to pay high service and placement fees to these agencies at the time. To facilitate the process, the Thai and Taiwanese governments permitted recruitment agencies from both countries to collaborate, with Taiwanese recruitment firms establishing branches in Thailand to recruit workers locally. In 2002, the two governments reached an agreement to implement a government program, enabling Taiwanese employers to hire Thai workers without the involvement of private employment agencies. As a result, Thai unskilled and semi-skilled workers can legally work in Taiwan under three conditions: 1) the government channel, 2) the private recruitment agency channel, and 3) re-entry. Data from the Thailand Overseas Employment Administration reveals the proportion of Thai workers entering Taiwan through the government channel as follows: 0.39% in 2018, 0.8% in 2019, 0.58% in 2020, and 0.6% in 2022. These figures indicate that the government channel may not be efficient. Despite the availability of multiple channels that allow Thai workers to enter Taiwan without paying fees to Thai recruitment agencies, most Thai workers still opt to work in Taiwan through these agencies. This study employed content analysis using secondary data and conducted in-depth interviews with 23 individuals. The purpose was to compare the advantages, disadvantages, and limitations of the government channel for sending Thai workers to Taiwan. Subsequently, we sought to determine the reasons why Thai workers prefer private recruitment agencies over the government channel. Finally, we provided the policy recommendations for Thai and Taiwanese government. We also recommended The Thai government should enhance its processes by reducing unnecessary steps, integrating information across all government agencies and collaboration with the private sector. The Taiwan government, on the other hand, should improve its laws and regulations to more suitable for Taiwanese employers and Thai workers.
