高齡⋅低成長 時代의 勞動과 法 - 勞動法上 새로운 패러다임 구축에 대한 試論-

As our society changes into rapid aging and low developed society, new various labor problems that wenever experienced before has occurred. For example, the problems about senior employment and unemploymentof young people that happened by “extension of retirement age”, job creation and relative discrimination oftemporary workers and female workers have become controversial issues as stand for “development withoutemployment”. In order to break the link between aging of these social vicious cycle, it is necessary to modify thetraditional paradigm of labor and social law system to suit the slow growth. Nevertheless, the Korean labor lawdo not seem to respond adequately to these changes. For example, in the case of the Labor Standards Act,because the law applies only to the workers in line with its typical plant protection target, temporary workersor workers who do not engage in formal employment are excluded. In addition, the collective decision systemof Labor Union Law does not function properly, so there are so many labor disputes between employees andemployers. Research results under the above critical mind came to the following conclusions. In order to cope with theaging society and low growth period, it is necessary to reform the employment system. In particular, I thinkthat the problem of temporary workers must be addressed. Furthermore, the most important things are to correctthe irrational discrimination and to build a social safety net in order to solve the problem.
