This empirical research papers focus on practice of University teachers fought for labor rights. Taiwan's higher education expansion due to the reform policy has resulted in market-oriented of higher education and tighter control of faculty on campus, etc. These greatly limit the university academic autonomy, and create great challenge and pressure upon career development of university faculty. Starting from classroom chair for instructor, an action research advocacy by author carried out inside and outside school, has concluded that the employers’ oppression on professors’ labor rights is even higher than that on academic autonomy. Protection of labor right for university faculty has become urgent issues in workplace. Furthermore, method to invoke consciousness of oppressed professor, as well as various types of advocacy for labor issues taken by teachers' union in the form of social work are new paths to be considered in the field of social work relating workplace in Taiwan.
