Coupang, a large retailer, has grown rapidly enough to be listed on the US stock market, but there are constant criticisms about the poor working environment that is not suitable for its size.



A few months ago, a fire at the logistics center revealed various problems, and reporter Han Ji-yeon covered whether the working conditions of the workers improved a little after that.

Coupang logistics center workers are inspected for cell phones every time they enter.



[(Can't bring a cell phone?) No.] In the



rest area, there was a plastic tent or 100 chairs lined up without a table.



There are still many workplaces that do not have air conditioning or heating.



[Coupang Logistics Center Employee A: As you can see, there is no fan. It was really hot in midsummer.] In



some centers, the shuttle bus does not start operating until more than 30 minutes after leaving the office in the early morning hours at night.



[Coupang Logistics Center Employee B: The shuttle doesn't start, so I have to wait almost an hour... ]



Claims that bonuses are also jagged with no set rules.



[Coupang Logistics Center Employee C: That's up to you (company). Centipede (as decided) may be 10,000 won or 20,000 won.]



[Coupang Logistics Center Employee D: Why don’t we give incentives and only deliver (team) today again. (So…)]



In particular, he said that before this Chuseok holiday, he proposed a bonus of 800,000 won for working for more than 20 consecutive days, and only half if he took a day off.




[Coupang Logistics Center Employee E: How recklessly we continue to extend the extension to receive it.]



[Coupang Logistics Center Employee C: So it’s control, control…

I'm very used to the controls.

I do not leave it autonomously.] After



examining Coupang's labor contract with a labor agent, the phrases 'according to the company's needs' and 'when the company deems it appropriate' appear in almost all items.



[Jeong Si-hwan/Labor Attorney: I think it was made so that you (the company) can interpret it on an arbitrary basis.

Making workers who are not familiar with the Labor Standards Act give up on exercising their rights (this is the content)] The



item that there is no specific composition and calculation method for weekly holiday pay, the working days are determined as the company has notified in advance, and a wage bonus upon termination of the contract There were 13 possible violations of the Labor Standards Act, such as not being able to make any claims to the company, or deducting the cost of work clothes from wages.
