The Executive Yuan yesterday approved amendments to gender equality laws that would impose stiffer penalties, including up to three years in prison and a maximum fine of NT$1 million (US$32,169) for offenders who use their position or power to sexually harass others.

The amendments to the Act of Gender Equality in Employment (性別平等工作法), the Gender Equity Education Act (性別平等教育法) and the Sexual Harassment Prevention Act (性騷擾防治法) were proposed following a series of harassment scandals that have been exposed since May, with perpetrators ranging from politicians to writers, academics and celebrities.
