Finding information on Korean labor law written in English is excruciatingly difficult. Any CEOs and HR managers who tried googling their questions on Korean labor law will understand what I mean. What they get after online searches are a bunch of websites that barely answer the questions. Even if there are relevant articles, they are often outdated and not detailed enough. I wrote this guide to address this lack of updated and relevant information in English with regard to Korean labor laws. Let me tell you briefly what you can get from this book. First, I summarize the most important rules of Korean labor laws governing work conditions. I focus on the the most important points of 10+ laws for work conditions. I only cover the matters that HR managers want to know. If you want to find the information in the book through online search, you should check out more than ten separate laws. However, lots of them have no English translation for the latest amendments. For example, the Labor Standards Act, the major labor law, has not been translated into English since 2014. Second, I explain all the information in plain English. I am not a fan of abstruse and complicated sentences. I did my best to get clear ideas of what is meant by the Korean texts of relevant laws and to explain them in plain English. Third, I quote titles and article numbers of relevant labor laws for all the sections in the book. Therefore, you can be sure that I am not making things up but faithfully conveying the information in the law. It is also useful for writing any inside HR report because you have the source to the information you find in the book. My book covers topics such as employment contract, work hours and overtime, ordinary wage, average wage, annual leave, holidays, social insurances, non-regular employees, dismissal, rules of employment, maternity leave, childcare leave, retirement benefits and more. About the author Sunny Lee is a freelance consultant specializing in labor laws of South Korea. As a consultant and certified public labor attorney, he has been giving advice on Korean labor laws to foreign CEOs and HR managers for the last fifteen years.

Labor, laws, and love. Yen Le Espiritu explores how racist and gendered labor conditions and immigration laws have affected relations between and among Asian American women and men. Asian American Men and Women documents how the historical and contemporary oppression of Asians in the United States has (re)structured the balance of power between Asian American women and men and shaped their struggles to create and maintain social institutions and systems of meaning. Espiritu emphasizes how race, gender, and class, as categories of difference, do not parallel but instead intersect and confirm one other.

"The United States Code is the official codification of the general and permanent laws of the United States of America. The Code was first published in 1926, and a new edition of the code has been published every six years since 1934. The 2012 edition of the Code incorporates laws enacted through the One Hundred Twelfth Congress, Second Session, the last of which was signed by the President on January 15, 2013. It does not include laws of the One Hundred Thirteenth Congress, First Session, enacted between January 2, 2013, the date it convened, and January 15, 2013. By statutory authority this edition may be cited "U.S.C. 2012 ed." As adopted in 1926, the Code established prima facie the general and permanent laws of the United States. The underlying statutes reprinted in the Code remained in effect and controlled over the Code in case of any discrepancy. In 1947, Congress began enacting individual titles of the Code into positive law. When a title is enacted into positive law, the underlying statutes are repealed and the title then becomes legal evidence of the law. Currently, 26 of the 51 titles in the Code have been so enacted. These are identified in the table of titles near the beginning of each volume. The Law Revision Counsel of the House of Representatives continues to prepare legislation pursuant to 2 U.S.C. 285b to enact the remainder of the Code, on a title-by-title basis, into positive law. The 2012 edition of the Code was prepared and published under the supervision of Ralph V. Seep, Law Revision Counsel. Grateful acknowledgment is made of the contributions by all who helped in this work, particularly the staffs of the Office of the Law Revision Counsel and the Government Printing Office"--Preface.
