The government continues to 'beat the union'... Following the cargo union, the construction union

<Anchor>

Recently, the government has been pouring out remarks criticizing the construction union.

Reporter Lee Hye-mi reports what the background is, as the government, which previously showed a strong response to the cargo union and emphasized labor reform, seems to be targeting the construction union this time.

Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Won Hee-ryong visited the construction site of an elementary school in Busan whose opening was delayed due to construction delays.

He pointed to construction union rallies and freight union strikes as the cause, and poured out hardline remarks that the construction union is forcing construction companies to provide money and use equipment.

The Korean Constitution does not tolerate such a thing.

It is clearly stated that the labor movement is a gangster, a gangster, and a poison at the construction site that must be cut out.]

Recently, President Seok-yeol Yoon emphasized the eradication of corruption in the union, citing the construction union as an example.

[President Seok-yeol Yoon (4th of last month): In particular, illegal and violent acts of blocking the entry of construction vehicles such as ready-mixed concrete, demanding money from construction companies, or forcing illegal recruitment are prevalent at

construction sites .]

A special crackdown by the Korean police has begun, and a government joint task force has also been set up.

The construction union's illegal act at the construction site of a public institution has decided to directly respond to civil and criminal cases.

The construction labor union opposes that it is oppressing legitimate union activities while ignoring the issue of illegal multi-level subcontracting, which is a chronic disease at construction sites.

[Jang Ok-ki/Chief of the Confederation of Construction Industry Federation (Screen source: KCTU YouTube): We are carrying out labor union activities while protecting the three rights of labor guaranteed by the Constitution.

The unequal and unfair parts of the site have been changed through the labor union so far.]

The government, which judged that it had received the 'white flag surrender' of the cargo union last year, is continuing an all-out war against the construction union, and the conflict between the labor and government is expected to intensify.
