강사법과 시간강사의 근로조건 ― 시간강사의 근로시간 판례 검토를 중심으로 ―

In order to improve the treatment of lecturers, the Lecturer Act established regulations that guarantee the status of lecturers by law. The Lecturer Act included the vacation period in the appointment period with the appointment period of one year or more, set the number of class hours to be less than 6 hours per week, and guaranteed re-employment procedures up to three years including new appointments. However, the Lecturer Act does not stipulate the calculation of working hours for lecturers. As a result, there is a problem of applying working conditions related to the calculation of working hours for lecturers. This is because, depending on how the lecturer's working hours are calculated, the application of severance pay and annual paid leave is excluded as they become ultra-short workers with less than 15 hours a week. In this paper, the working conditions of lecturers are reviewed focusing on the Lecturer Act and precedents. First, after examining the contents of the Lecturer Act that stipulates the legal status of lecturers, issues related to the lecturer's working hours are reviewed. And it analyzes the precedents related to the working hours of part-time lecturers.
