Personnel Matters, Wages, and Other Working Conditions

Introduction

In the field of labor law, one of the most common areas of cases and disputes concerns the individual working conditions of employees. Although personnel management is an inherent right of an employer, if it is not rational and objective, it can be abused to negate its effectiveness and can easily be interpreted as a way to punish workers. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain professional advice on the clear distinction and reasonable application of legitimate personnel management rights and disciplinary rights.  

It is very important to accurately apply enforceable laws and regulations on normal wages, average wages, and severance pay, and to establish and operate a reasonable wage system. ClassHankyul has experience in a large number of wage disputes involving whether various wages are normal wages, whether incentive wages are included in the average wage, and the legality of wage peak systems, as well as advising on the design and operation of reasonable wage systems.
