Outcome
The case was rejected by the Korean NCP on the grounds that the same issues were part of a negotation between management and labour being handled by the Seoul regional office of the Ministry of Employment and Labor. The NCP has reported in its 2012 Annual Report that the initial assessment is published on its web site. However, TUAC is unable to find this assessment perhaps because it is published in Korean only.
