2026 is a turning point for labor management. Explaining the latest trends to prevent management risks.
2026 will be a year with multiple overlapping legal reforms and system changes that will significantly impact corporate labor management. On October 1st of this year, customer harassment prevention measures under the revised Act on Comprehensive Promotion of Labor Policies will become mandatory for all business owners, regardless of size. Discussions are also ongoing regarding the revision of the Labor Standards Act, the first major revision in approximately 40 years, focusing on points with significant practical implications such as continuous work regulations and work interval rules.
Furthermore, system changes directly affecting payroll calculation and employment management, such as the expansion of social insurance coverage, have already been implemented in April 2026. Postponing these responses could directly lead to management risks such as administrative guidance, liability for damages, and employee turnover.
In this seminar, we will provide an overview of these latest trends in 60 minutes and organize and convey practical responses that should be initiated before enforcement, from a lawyer's perspective.
