معرفی
Wan-Ning Hsu is a full-time Professor at the College of Law, National Taiwan University, specializing in Labor Law, Employment Law, Workers' Compensation Systems, and Civil Law. With a Doctor of Laws from the University of Tokyo and practical experience as a labor law practitioner, she bridges academic research and real-world legal application in Taiwan's labor landscape.
Education:
- Bachelor of Laws, National Taiwan University
- Master of Laws, Nagoya University
- Doctor of Laws, University of Tokyo
Her research focuses on comparative labor law systems (particularly Japan-Taiwan), workers' rights protection, and ESG integration in labor markets. She examines judicial interpretations of labor standards, occupational injury compensation, and evolving workplace regulations through bilingual scholarship (Chinese/Japanese), influencing policy reforms in working hours, harassment prevention, and gender equity.
Recent publications (2023-2024) reveal three key trends: (1) ESG frameworks reshaping corporate labor obligations, (2) judicial reinterpretation of commuting accidents and part-time worker rights, and (3) cross-border analysis of Japan's labor reforms informing Taiwan's regulatory evolution. Her work consistently links theoretical civil law principles with practical labor dispute resolution.

- 臺大法律學院服務優良獎 (107學年度)

As principal investigator for 12 research projects (2011-2025), she secured grants from Taiwan's Ministry of Science and Technology and Labor Affairs Bureau. Key initiatives include ESG-labor law integration studies (2023-2025), workplace harassment prevention systems (2022-2023), and Japan-Taiwan comparative analyses of occupational safety. Her projects directly inform legislative proposals on workers' compensation insurance and gender equity.
While no formal lab structure is documented, her international collaborations—particularly with Japanese institutions like the University of Tokyo—form dynamic research networks advancing comparative labor jurisprudence through joint publications and policy workshops.
