[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Shin Dong-ho] The Nosa-Minjeong Council of Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Chairman Seo Dae-seok) has completed a project that selected 30 small-scale businesses with five or fewer employees severely impacted by COVID-19 and provided one-on-one customized labor consulting through direct visits by labor attorneys.


Seo-gu recently announced on the 15th that it recruited and selected 30 small-scale businesses with five or fewer employees and completed free labor consulting conducted by two labor attorneys and one consultant who visited the workplaces directly.


For workers, the consulting proposed improvements in labor management such as preparing employment contracts and payroll ledgers, wage management under labor law, working and break times, and holiday operations. It also provided easy explanations of labor laws and was highly praised by business owners for providing necessary forms and a booklet titled "Labor Knowledge in Your Hands" that workplaces should have.



A Seo-gu official said, "We hope this project will greatly contribute to enhancing labor rights for small-scale businesses and vulnerable workers who are struggling due to COVID-19," adding, "We plan to continuously provide consulting so that more businesses can receive assistance in the future."
