Members of the Korean Construction Workers Union, under the South Korea’s second largest umbrella labor union Korea Confederation of Trade Unions, gathered at the Seoul Plaza in central Seoul at 4 p.m. for a walkout that will go on for an indefinite period.
The workers demanded a total of 18 agendas, including a guarantee of fair wages, expansion of direct employment by builders instead of outsourcing to subcontractors and the establishment of a law to punish companies for work-related deaths and accidents.
Police said they will block the roads around the area, including Sejong-daero, and also warned against any illegal activities during the rally.
