Relevant information such as job assignments and pay, and employee evaluation methods were provided to employees.



If you file an objection, you must also consult.



Changes to the contract must be notified 15 days in advance and 30 days prior to termination of the contract.



In addition, if you violate these contents or discriminate on the basis of gender or nationality, we have decided to impose a fine of not more than 5 million won.

In addition, the bill stipulates that platform workers can create groups and request consultations with the company, but it is also limited that there is no provision that the company must comply.



There are about 220,000 domestic platform workers.



Of these, only 23% of the web-based types, such as design and IT-related industries, account for the most, and 77% of the regional-based types such as deputy and delivery drivers.



There are also voices that the regional-based type should be recognized as a general worker.



[In-Soo Shin/Director, Democratic Trade Unions Union: These people should be viewed as workers, even under the current labor laws.

Platform workers' request is not to apply a special law, but because they are existing workers, please apply the Labor Standards Act…

The government plans to finalize the contents of the bill within the next month after collecting relevant opinions.
