The regulatory changes in Korea during the national economic crisis 10 years ago and in the current global recession were analyzed to understand the characteristics of deregulation in labor policies.
Data for this study were derived from the Korean government's official database for administrative regulations and a government document reporting deregulation.
A great deal of business-friendly deregulation took place during both economic crises. Occupational health and safety were the main targets of deregulation in both periods, and the regulation of employment promotion and vocational training was preserved relatively intact. The sector having to do with working conditions and the on-site welfare of workers was also deregulated greatly during the former economic crisis, but not in the current global recession.
Among the three main areas of labor policy, occupational health and safety was most vulnerable to the deregulation in economic crisis of Korea. A probable reason for this is that the impact of deregulation on the health and safety of workers would not be immediately disclosed after the policy change.
分析韩国在10年前的国家经济危机期间以及当前全球衰退期间的监管变化，以了解劳动政策放松管制的特点。
本研究的数据来自韩国政府行政法规官方数据库以及一份报告放松管制情况的政府文件。
在两次经济危机期间都进行了大量有利于企业的放松管制措施。职业健康与安全是两个时期放松管制的主要目标，而促进就业和职业培训的监管相对保持完整。在前一次经济危机期间，与工人工作条件和现场福利相关的部门也大幅放松了管制，但在当前全球衰退期间并非如此。
在劳动政策的三个主要领域中，职业健康与安全在韩国经济危机期间最容易受到放松管制的影响。一个可能的原因是，政策变化后，放松管制对工人健康和安全的影响不会立即显现出来。
