President Yoon Seok-yeol applied the rule of law and corrupt unions to the “public enemy” as a strategy to make enemies of the “exploitative unions” through labor-management rule of law, and took a sharp turn from “labor-management autonomy” in the presidential transition committee’s state affairs tasks.
Previously, the Yoon Seok-yeol administration set out labor reforms in the 'economic policy direction for the next five years' in June by expanding the working hour settlement period of "diversifying working hour management methods within the framework of the maximum 52-hour weekly system", activating the flexible working hour system, introducing the working hour savings account system, Suggested the expansion of the management unit for the total amount of overtime working hours.
In the ‘110 State Tasks of the Yoon Seok-Yeol Administration’ in May, the Presidential Transition Committee announced “Promotion of institutional improvement to strengthen the representativeness and independence of labor-management council worker members.”
Regarding the strike by the cargo union on June 11, President Yoon said, “If (the government) gets too deeply involved in labor-management issues, the capacity and environment to resolve this issue amicably between labor and management will not accumulate at all…” .
KBS reported that day, <President Yoon Seok-yeol said about the cargo union strike that the problem should be resolved through “labor-management autonomy”>.
President Yoon said yesterday (21st), “Labor-management rule of law is an absolutely unavoidable task in order to grow.” It will be ignored,” and presented “exploitation between unions” as the target of attack.
People's Power Rep. Ha Tae-gyeong proposed an amendment to the Labor Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act on the 20th, and the amendment requires that unions of large corporations and public corporations with more than 300 employees submit accounting data to the Ministry of Employment and Labor every year.
The power of the people held a party-government council on the 20th, and Ho-young Joo, in-house representative, said at an in-house countermeasure meeting, “It is estimated that the annual union fee of the KCTU will exceed 170 billion won. "It doesn't make sense that large sums of money are completely out of the pry of external scrutiny," she revealed.
President Yoon met with 200 young people at the Blue House on the 20th and said, “Of the three major reforms, labor reform is the first thing to be promoted.”
On the 21st, at the State Affairs Meeting, President Yoon said about the labor union, “In terms of improving the dual structure, fairness in labor reform is very important.” Union corruption is one of the three major corruptions to be eradicated in our society along with public corruption and corporate corruption, and we must strictly enforce the law.” 'public enemy'.
President Yoon continued, “Our labor movement and union activities can only develop more healthily on a transparent accounting basis.” The 'union accounting intervention' was an issue.
The FKTU, which is pro-women, has an annual budget of 13.8 billion won, and its affiliates pay 6.67 billion won in membership fees, 2.63 billion won in government subsidies, and 4.7 billion won in support from the city of Seoul and public institutions. The FKTU's subsidy execution is verified in accordance with the 'Subsidy Management Act' in accordance with the law, and the accounts are audited, and 'corruption management' is linked to the 'government and Seoul public institutions', which are applicants.
The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), a higher-level organization of the cargo union, is a fixed cost because the Ministry of Employment and Labor provided 3 billion won in deposit for the federation headquarters office (Kyunghyang Shinmun building) from the state treasury.
Other subsidies are limited to some of the industrial unions and regional headquarters linked to the Ministry of Labor and local governments, and the “relationship with the payer” is also a priority for verification, so the “170 billion won” pointed out by Joo Ho-young seems to be aimed at the KCTU union fee.
Minister of Employment and Labor Lee Jung-sik responded to the cargo strike on the 5th by saying, “The government guarantees autonomous dialogue and compromise within the framework of the law, but adheres to the stance of strictly responding to illegal acts in accordance with the law and principles regardless of labor and management, regardless of position. will be firmly established,” he said.
Prime Minister Han Deok-soo said on the 6th about the strike by the cargo workers' union that "the goal that the new government must achieve is to firmly establish the rule of law in the labor field for the next five years."

On July 19, President Yoon spoke of 'rule of law at industrial sites' at a cabinet meeting, saying, “regardless of labor and management, the rule of law must be strictly established at industrial sites” in response to a labor union strike at a subcontractor of Daewoo Shipbuilding.

President Yoon said at the National Integration Committee meeting on the 21st, "There are also forces with large-scale opinions that insist that 'freedom' should be deleted from the constitutional liberal democracy, so it is a country where stable integration is very difficult."
Article 48 of the Trade Union Act stipulates the procedure and method of collective bargaining, and when a labor dispute arises, it must endeavor to resolve it voluntarily. Labor-management autonomy was defined as “trying for a quick and fair solution.”
