이탈리아의 단시간 근로제도에 대한 연구

It is global attention to increase number of jobs and employment rates that almost every countries are aiming at. Korea also began to have interests in these issues since the late 1990s after the first financial crisis. The second financial crisis that came in 2008 asked the Government to pursue tangible results of increased employment rates. It has been 8 years since Korea enforced Fixed-term and Part-time workers Protection Act which was established in July 2007. However, over the time the current regulatory scheme has been focusing on excluding or reducing the protection scopes of ordinary workers. Instead of systematically regulating in one labor Act, it fractionally regulates each individual subjects in various acts. According to the current Fixed-term and Part-time workers Protection Act, part-time workers who work less than 15 hrs a week are excluded from a weekly holiday, annual paid leave and they can take a leave based on time rather than day which is against the International Labour Standard. This regulation causes the effect of denying annual paid leave rights of part-time workers. Also ordinary workers can ask to work for reduced time only for the purpose of Work and Family Balance. Women are majority part-time workers already and the regulatory scheme may cause side effects in expanding employing women as part-time workers. Italy had a lot of things in common. Rapid aging population, low female employment rate and at the same time low birth rates, increased youth unemployment, regional wealth gap and conflicts, informal economy (lavoro nero) ect similar issues can be found in Italy. Therefore, in this paper I introduce Italy's part-time working schemes including its enacted inspector and regulatory contents. Then I will organize its features and implications for us.
