Practice/Industry Group Overview
Labor laws and regulations are becoming more complicated by legislation of the Temporary Workers Protection Act and the amendment of laws regarding labor relations, which new kinds of labor disputes and conflicts are continuing to evalute. Accordingly, demand for legal advice with respect to labor issues is growing.
The Labor Group at Shin & Kim provides consultation not only on individual and collective labor relations,- but also on the transfer of employees in connection with corporate restructuring, M&As, and workforce restructuring. Shin & Kim also represents clients in litigation before courts and administrative institutions such as the National Labor Relations Commission.
Shin & Kim also provides legal advice on issues regarding fixed-termed, short-term, and dispatched employees both to domestic and international companies, including commercial banks.
