Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) : Press Statement , April 1st, 2005 1. Today afternoon, the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) will enter a four-hour warning strike in order to protect the rights of irregular workers and to stop further polarization of society. The government is planning to unilaterally push forth its bill on irregular workers, which is expected to expand irregular labour and worsen social polarization, during the April session of National Assembly. In the meantime, labour circles have continuously called for withdrawal of the government�s bill while proposing an alternative legislation aimed at substantially protecting the rights of irregular workers. However, the government and National Assembly have ignored this alternative proposal and remain obstinate on enforcing the government bill. As a result, the KCTU had implemented a six-hour strike on 26th November, and also struggled throughout February. The government thoroughly underestimates the destructive effects that its bill will bring. How can irregular workers be protected when there are no measures inside the bill to ban discrimination, when there are no set standards for use of period workers?
