The Chinese team won the gold medal in the 3X3 basketball game of the Hangzhou Asian Games. Professional basketball has also developed rapidly in recent years. More and more people are concerned about the development of basketball players and basketball teams. The power of the times legislator Qiu Xianzhi passed away the accidental death of Taiwan Beer player Lan Jinjie, but It was discovered that there was no labor and health insurance to claim for compensation, and it was pointed out that Taiwan Beer’s situation could not protect the players. In fact, Taiwan Beer was the only Taiwanese team that did not have labor and health insurance.

The Taiwan Beer Basketball Team responded that it does not have an employment relationship with the players, and labor laws do not apply. The Taiwan Beer Basketball Team is sponsored by the Basketball Association established by Taiwan Beer. The players and players are not signed by the Taiwan Beer Basketball Association, but the head coach. In response to Qiu Xianzhi’s query, Finance Minister Zhuang Cuiyun said that he would find lawyers and legal consultants to clarify the players’ contracts, review whether to refer to the models of other teams, and respond within two weeks.

The Professional Basketball Union responded to “CTWANT” that Taiwan Beer players cannot be insured by the union because they have employers. Regarding Taiwan Beer’s failure to provide labor and health insurance for the players, the union also assisted and requested that since the Taiwan Beer team has a fixed budget every year, Adding labor health insurance may exceed the budget. Therefore, although the Taiwan Beer Football Team is not insured yet, it is already working hard to help improve the situation. In addition, the Taiwan Beer Bears Basketball Team of T1 also did not have labor health insurance.
