최저임금 준수율의 제고를 위한 소고

Abstract

The current Minimum Wage Act plans to impose penalties on violations of the minimum wages to ensure that the minimum wage system is well implemented, and introduces fines in terms of procedures for compliance with the minimum wage. This takes into account the fact that the compliance with the minimum wage is the basic order of the country, and that it is the most basic rule in a working relationship. It has come up with reasonable measures to enhance the compliance rate of the minimum wage. The sequence of the discussions is as follows. First, we look at the status of the minimum wage, the trend of the rate below the minimum wage, and the history of violations of the minimum wage (II). Also, consider the contents relating to the compliance rate with the minimum wage pending in the National Assembly (III). In addition, it reviews the issues and challenges for compliance with the minimum wage, such as whether to impose a mandatory payment fee when the minimum wage is not paid(Ⅳ). Ultimately, the minimum wage is to secure the minimum wage level of low-paid workers. It is highly likely that the minimum wage should be followed. However, in reality, the effectiveness of the sanctions and remedies is still limited with a higher minimum wage rate. In order to raise the minimum wage compliance rate, it is necessary to operate a combination of the company's payment ability, worker employability possibility, and the possibility of absorption into other industries. First, it is necessary for the business owner to actively guide, promote and educate the purpose and contents of the minimum wage system as a precaution. And it is necessary to strengthen the labor supervision to ensure compliance with the minimum wage.
