Young workers in South Korea are in favour of the government’s labour reform aimed at giving companies and employees greater flexibility in managing working hours and overtime.

The measure proved to be a contentious point, but at the time, the government was left-leaning, while now it is in conservative’s hands. Under current rules, workers can do a maximum of 12 hours of overtime per week. Under proposed changes, these would be increased and be counted more flexibly.The government proposal raises the amount of overtime hours but spreads over longer periods: 52 hours every month, 140 every quarter, 250 every six months, and 440 hours yearly.

“We will focus on giving more flexibility and choices in work hours, so employees can work and take a rest when they want to," said Finance Minister Choo Kyung-ho when he presented the proposal.
