사업장 단위 복수노조 형성에 관한 연구: 간접고용 비정규직 작업장에서의 ‘불만족의 삼각동맹’ 형성과정을 중심으로

In July 2011, the multiple union system at the workplace level was implemented in South Korea. How are multiple unions formed in the workplace? The emergence of external changes of law does not necessarily mean that new unions are established at the workplace. Previous studies have pointed out that fragmentation of existing unions was the most important factor when multiple unions were coexisting at the workplace level. Based on the findings of previous studies, this study explores the fragmentation process of existing union as a prerequisite for the formation of multiple union system at the workplace level through participant observation in a facilities management service workplace in ‘University A’. This study analyzes the process of union demarcation by dividing it into cleavage from the inside of the union and threats from outside the union. This study analyzes the formation of ‘dissatisfied triangular alliance’, paying attention to the process of combining internal cleavage with external threats. Workplace actors who are dissatisfied with existing unions have united to resolve their dissatisfaction. This paper examines the linkage between causes for dissatisfaction of each actor and incentives to establish a new union as a way to overcome dissatisfaction. Finally, it analyzes implications for the formation of multiple union system in indirectly employed non-standard workers’ workplace.
