S. Korean Part-time Workers Call for Rights to Labor
Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- Part-time workers under the south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) held a press conference at the Kwanghwamun Plaza in Seoul on March 31.

Speakers at the press conference said recently the "Saenuri Party" openly opposed continuous job offer, which was an election commitment of the present executive chief.

The KCTU urged all political parties to ensure vital rights of part-time workers but the "Saenuri Party" alone did not reply, they said, and went on:

The present "National Assembly" has always backed plutocrats while evading answers to the workers' demand.

They demanded the authorities ensure sustained jobs, guarantee basic rights for indirect employed and special employees, withdraw discrimination of part-time jobs, raise minimum wage, etc.
