關廠工遊行
政府的年金改革方案，幾乎都是繳多領少，對勞工沒保障，因此今天下午，就在五一勞動節這天，產總工會和33個工會團體，再度串聯，2萬多名勞工上街抗議，反對年金改革修惡！並從立院一路走到行政院。
兩萬多名勞工，齊聚一堂，讓政府看到勞工心中的怒吼!
[[勞工]]
“因為現在什麼都漲啊 我們的薪水像我們當保母的 我們一個月除了補助 還要被扣還要被降低 家長也會要求說他們的薪水也很少啊”
痛批政府年金改革方案，勞工繳多領少，沒辦法生活，他們決定遊行到行政院門口，希望院長江宜樺出來面對。
不見政府出面回應，勞工企圖要衝撞拒馬，警方趕緊制止，雙方爆發激烈衝突 !
這次遊行的大訴求，除了希望資遣及退休納入墊償範圍、終結責任制等外最重要的，希望立委能和勞工站在一起，並簽下反對政府的年金版本承諾書。民進黨、親民黨和台聯都簽名支持，惟讀國民黨不見人影！
原本遲遲不回應的馬總統和江宜樺，在傍晚時也表示，政府會尊重且虛心傾聽。
On May Day workers take to the streets of Taipei (2013/05/01)
On International Workers’ Day thousands braved the rain in Taipei to protest against labor conditions. They want guarantees that bankrupt companies fulfill retirement and severance obligations, and they are urging the government to scrap proposed pension reform.
More than 20,000 gathered to show their anger to the government.
Worker
Prices of everything have gone up. Salaries for us nannies are falling, and what’s left is deducted. We only have a small subsidy. Parents tell us that their salaries are low.
Labor pension reform will mean higher premiums and lower retirement packages. Workers say they won’t be able to survive. They held a protest, walking to the entrance of the Executive Yuan and demanding that Premier Jiang Yi-huah come out to listen to their demands.
When Jiang didn’t show, the workers planned to storm the barricades. As police stopped them pushing and shoving broke out.
The workers want money for severance and retirement included in arrear wage payment funds, so they get owed money even if companies go bankrupt. They asked for abolishment of the designated responsibility system, which Taiwanese employers exploit to require that workers do overtime for no pay. And they urged lawmakers to sign a petition opposing the government’s proposed pension reform. Members of the DPP, PFP and TSU signed, but the ruling KMT did not.
Toward evening President Ma Ying-jeou and Premier Jiang Yi-huah gave a response. They said the government respects and will listen to labor.
