31st Future Labor Reform Forum: Issues and Tasks in the New Government’s Dual Labor Market Structure

A seminar titled “The Current State and Challenges of Labor Market Dual Structure under the New Government” was held on the theme of resolving labor market dual structure and future reform tasks. As the structural polarization of Korea’s labor market has recently emerged as a major social issue, this seminar was organized as a forum to analyze its causes, legal and institutional issues, and policy implications from multiple angles, and to discuss the mid- to long-term reform agenda for labor policy.

Thank you to everyone who participated.
