Pan obtained his bachelor's degree in political science from Tunghai University and master's degree in labor studies from Chinese Culture University. He continued his graduate study in the United States, obtaining master's and doctoral degrees in industrial and labor relations from Cornell University.[2]
During the 2008 ROC Presidential Election, Pan wrote the labor policy for Ma Ying-jeou and Vincent Siew ticket of the Kuomintang.[4]
Pan was appointed to be the Minister of CLA after the incumbent Minister Wang Ju-hsuan resigned amid an uproar over her proposal to raise the minimum wage in Taiwan.
In mid April 2013, Pan announced new pension reforms for Taiwan due to the projected Labor Insurance Funds bankruptcy in 2027. He added that the ROC government had launched a series reform methods to sustain the fund for at least another 30 years. He warned that this change would be painful.[5]
