近年來，由於臺灣與中國大陸之間的關係變化，雙方所簽訂的兩岸經濟合作架構協議（ECFA）再次成為討論焦點。本研究旨在從勞動需求彈性的角度，探討ECFA對臺灣的影響，這是過去研究中較少涉及的領域。本研究以臺灣製造業為主要對象，不僅分析ECFA對整體製造業的影響，還進一步將製造業分為高科技與非高科技產業，以檢視ECFA對兩者勞動需求彈性的影響。實證結果顯示，ECFA實施後，臺灣整體製造業的勞動需求彈性顯著增加，且無論是高科技產業還是非高科技產業，勞動需求彈性均顯著提升。這表明，ECFA的實施可能導致臺灣勞工面臨更不穩定的就業情況。

In recent years, shifts in the relationship between Taiwan and mainland China have brought the Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) back into the spotlight. This study aims to explore the impact of ECFA on Taiwan, focusing specifically on labor demand elasticity, a topic that has been relatively under-researched. The analysis primarily targets Taiwan's manufacturing sector. The study not only examines the overall effects of ECFA on the manufacturing industry but also differentiates between high-tech and non-high-tech industries to assess the varied impacts on labor demand elasticity across these sectors.
Empirical findings reveal that the implementation of ECFA has led to a significant increase in labor demand elasticity within Taiwan's manufacturing sector. Furthermore, the results indicate that ECFA has markedly elevated labor demand elasticity in both high-tech and non-high-tech industries. These outcomes suggest that the enactment of ECFA may introduce greater uncertainty and risk to Taiwan's labor market.
