노동 분야에서 사회적 책임의 실현 방안 고찰

The targets and scope of social responsibility vary depends on labor legislation which also vary from country to country. This paper reviews various systems to foster activities of social responsibility including ‘social dialogue’throughout the history. Most of the social agreement done by social dialogue in the past can be seen as a means to confirm to the legislative body and the nation that the labor and management have the same stands regarding the labor and employment policy of the government. Thus, the agreements in the past have their limits in terms of actively reflect demands from changing society especially in labor-related aspects. During the process of making guidelines of the government, thorough examination should be proceeded to determine whether the guideline can bring conflicts between the labor and management and lead to negative impact on forming social capital and social trust. Making legal responsibility of going through inspections or labeling by an independent 3rdparty is in appropriate without thorough analysis and study, and communications and consensus between the interested parties,since it does not reflect the reality. Therefore, the regulations to promote social responsibility in labor-related aspects should reflect changes in labor environment, should be receptive and effective with rationality and universality, and should continuously secure normativism in social responsibility. In this regard,“how to determine the direction and details of improving regulations,” and “how to expand the scope of the target”should be dealt first.
