직장 내 성희롱 예방교육 관련 법ㆍ제도 개선 방안

The Gender Equality Act stipulates that public institutions submit sexual harassment prevention training and implementation of preventive measures to the Minister of Gender Equality and Family every year for inspection. In addition, government-level monitoring of training and implementation are systematically implemented, such as not recognizing free training linked to sales or promotions. On the other hand, there is no legal and institutional ground for regulating the quality level of the training in private sectors. There is no requirement for the appointment and qualifications of the training instructors, which are the most important elements of the training. As a result, the problems of private training institutions, such as the issuance of instructor qualifications with only a two-hour lecture, were criticized by Parliament in 2019. On the other hand, in the case of instructors for disability awareness improvement training and occupational safety and health training, which are one of the statutory trainings under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the law stipulates the qualifications of instructors in detail. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the laws and systems that are the basis for sexual harassment prevention training, focusing on private companies, and to derive measures to improve the effectiveness of prevention training.
