Gyeonggi-do Launches 'Security Workers Abuse Support Center'

[Asia Economy (Uijeongbu) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Gyeonggi Province is operating the 'Security Workers' Abuse Support Center' to help security workers in the province who suffer from 'gapjil' by residents and others.

The Security Workers' Abuse Support Center is part of Governor Lee Jae-myung's 7th term administrative philosophy of 'Gyeonggi where labor is respected,' and will play a role in supporting the protection of labor rights for security workers who have suffered from abuse.

When a security worker requests counseling, Gyeonggi Province assigns a local village labor attorney and psychological counselor to provide free legal and psychological counseling as well as practical rights remedies.

In addition to the Abuse Support Center, the province will promote various projects aimed at fundamentally improving the labor rights of security workers, who have long been left in the blind spots of labor rights.

Kim Gyu-sik, Director of the Provincial Labor Bureau, said, "The province will promptly support security workers who have suffered abuse by utilizing accumulated capabilities such as the village labor attorney system," and added, "We will continue to discover and implement various projects and policies to improve the labor rights of vulnerable workers including security workers."

For counseling, call the support center (031-8030-4541) on weekdays from Monday to Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
