공공기관 노사공동협의회가 자회사 노동자 처우에 미친 영향에 관한 탐색적 연구

This study explores the effects of joint labor-management councils established between public institutions and their subsidiaries on improving the working conditions of subsidiary workers. These councils are part of a mid-level governance model introduced through Korea’s public sector regularization policy and are included in subsidiary evaluation indicators. Using evaluation reports from 2021 to 2023, the study conducts cross-tabulation and regression analyses to examine the relationship between the presence of councils and labor conditions indicators such as market wage alignment, welfare provisions, and the number of welfare programs. The analysis reveals that institutions with joint councils are significantly more likely to pay wages above the market standard. However, welfare points showed a negative association, while other welfare items had no statistically significant effects. The bidding rate was identified as the strongest factor influencing wage levels. These findings suggest that while joint labor-management councils may help coordinate wage-related issues, their impact on welfare is limited. Accordingly, institutional reforms to enhance their operational effectiveness and an integrated policy framework that includes structural factors such as bidding rates are recommended.
