Is it legal for companies in Taiwan to base salary on residency status?

I once got this response from them on a related question

又「就業歧視」係指當雇主以求職人或所僱用員工「與執行該項特定工作無關之特質」決定受僱與否或其勞動條件,且雇主在該項特質上之要求有不公平且不合理之情事,可認定為雇主對求職人或所僱用員工之歧視。

So, employers can discriminate on the basis of special characteristics needed for particular jobs. But, nationality itself shouldn’t have an impact on that in this situation, so it could well be an “unfair” or “unreasonable” condition. Then again, nationality isn’t mentioned in the act.
