Conflict intensifies between labor and management over peak wage system
Conflict intensifies between labor and management over peak wage system
임금피크제 둘러싼 노사 갈등 심화
Tensions between management and labor unions have been growing, following a recent Supreme Court ruling that the current peak wage system is tantamount to age-based discrimination as it cuts wages after a certain age without a rational reason, according to industry officials. 현행 임금피크제는 일정한 나이에 도달하면 임금을 삭감하는 등 연령에 따른 차별에 해당한다는 최근 대법원 판결에 따라 노사 갈등이 고조되고 있다고 업계 관계자들이 전했다.

Animal abandonment increases amid eased social distancing
Animal abandonment increases amid eased social distancing
