Talks on minimum wage

Park Hee-eun, a deputy head of the Federation of Korean Trade Unions, attaches a protest sign with the slogan "No Rule of Law" to the desk prior to the third plenary session of the Minimum Wage Commission at the government complex in Sejong, central South Korea, on June 8, 2023, protesting over a police crackdown on a labor sit-in in front of steel giant POSCO's factory in the southwestern town of Gwangyang on May 31. The 27-member commission, comprising nine each from three sides -- employers, employees and those representing social interests -- is tasked with setting the hourly minimum wage for next year.
