ABSTRACT

The welfare organization of the Railway Bureau of the General Governor of Taiwan-the Benefit Association of the Railway Bureau is the earliest established and the largest modern welfare organization. The aim to establish the Benefit Association of the Railway Bureau is to support the stuff of the Railway Bureau so as to make them do their jobs without their future anxieties; meanwhile, solve the conflict between labor and capital. The Benefit Association of the Railway Bureau kept on firming it’s foundation, expanded the range of arbitrary and the associates to relieve in order to kept up with the times. Besides, the Benefit Association set up kinds of attached services, such as the financial bureau, the insurance bureau, the housing bureau, the medical bureau and the consumption bureau one after another to promote the welfare of associates. It’s worthy of praise that it made progress with regard to concepts of modern welfare, human rights and survival rights. However, when we examine the running of the financial bureau, the medical bureau and the support after resignation, we’ll find it’s inferior to the Japanese Government Railways and the Railway Bureau of the General Governor of Korea and is necessary to be improved.
