Revision of Employment Rules for Wage Peak System, Collective Lawsuit for Wage Claims

Client Information
Individual / Plaintiff

 
Case Details

The bankruptcy trustee, Company A, revised the employment rules to introduce a wage peak system, which resulted in a reduction of wages for the bankruptcy estate assistants.
 

According to the revised rules, the employment age for workers was extended from 58 to 60 years. However, after reaching the age of 58, the wage peak system would be applied, resulting in lower wages.


This revised employment rule applied to the bankruptcy estate assistants who reached the age of 58, and those adversely affected sought legal assistance from Decent Law Firm, which has attorneys with expertise in labor law.

Decent's Strategy
Joonhyung "June" Park, a certified labor consultant and attorney at Decent Law Firm, emphasized that the revision of the employment rules was unfavorable to the workers and that the necessary consent procedures were not followed, demonstrating that the revisions lacked legal effectiveness.

Additionally, he highlighted that the wage peak system could not be applied to short-term contract workers who entered into employment contracts on a six-month basis and asserted that these workers were not new employees who accepted the new working conditions.
Outcome
" Plaintiff Victory"

Joonhyung "June" Park, a certified labor consultant and attorney at Decent Law Firm, successfully obtained a judgment for the payment of wages and delay damages against the bankruptcy trustee, Company A. Through collective litigation, we were able to effectively address the wrongful practices and illegal actions related to the wage peak system and labor relations.
