Description

Finding information on Korean labor law written in English is excruciatingly difficult. Any CEOs and HR managers who tried googling their questions on Korean labor law will understand what I mean. What they get after online searches are a bunch of websites that barely answer the questions. Even if there are relevant articles, they are often outdated and not detailed enough. I wrote this guide to address this lack of updated and relevant information in English with regard to Korean labor laws. Let me tell you briefly what you can get from this book. First, I summarize the most important rules of Korean labor laws governing work conditions. I focus on the the most important points of 10+ laws for work conditions. I only cover the matters that HR managers want to know. If you want to find the information in the book through online search, you should check out more than ten separate laws. However, lots of them have no English translation for the latest amendments. For example, the Labor Standards Act, the major labor law, has not been translated into English since 2014. Second, I explain all the information in plain English. I am not a fan of abstruse and complicated sentences. I did my best to get clear ideas of what is meant by the Korean texts of relevant laws and to explain them in plain English. Third, I quote titles and article numbers of relevant labor laws for all the sections in the book. Therefore, you can be sure that I am not making things up but faithfully conveying the information in the law. It is also useful for writing any inside HR report because you have the source to the information you find in the book. My book covers topics such as employment contract, work hours and overtime, ordinary wage, average wage, annual leave, holidays, social insurances, non-regular employees, dismissal, rules of employment, maternity leave, childcare leave, retirement benefits and more. About the author Sunny Lee is a freelance consultant specializing in labor laws of South Korea. As a consultant and certified public labor attorney, he has been giving advice on Korean labor laws to foreign CEOs and HR managers for the last fifteen years.
