영문 초록

The harmful effects of long time working hours are the possibility of deteriorating employee's physical and mental health and increase in defective rate and it also invites disrupts in works and family relations. To solve these problems, it is needed to take a closer look to see what kinds of working hours type will bring the most effective productivity to the company with the reduction of working hours. In regards to reduction of legal working hours, the gap of working hours cutting speed has widened between one group which reduce the working hours and other group which does not reduce the working hours. In addition, as small and medium sized companies are not adopting reduction of working hours and abiding by the labor standards law, the risk of widening gap between workers of big conglomerates. So to boost the trend of reducing working hours through legal working hours, government should make enormous efforts to improve systems to guarantee working conditions for part time employee's with the policies of letting employers abide by labor standards law. However, until now, there are many employee's who have a thought of working more for additional income in Korea. So it is hard to escape form that kinds of systematic environment where income and working hours are closely related in over works, night time works, holiday works and compensation for not choosing vacations. If this trend unchecked, it is very hard to change the form of long time works for acquiring high income. The reason why Korean employee's work more than employee's in OECD member countries is that Korean employee's work in Saturday and many companies do not recruit new human resources or they choose over works with existing employee's. Accordingly, to relief long time working hours, it is helpful to restructure system including change the way of work, revision in income system including overtime works, relief in increase elements of new recruits and nullification of connections with vacation system and income. All in all, to enhance long time works, systemic and custom elements which bring long time works should be changed but the hard part in reality is that status of Korean employee's income is not in position of replacing income to vacation. Theoretically, it is desirable to find the way of achieving the three aspects(reduction in real working time, improve in labor productivity and enhancement and increase of existing income level) and enhance long time works by not giving burdens to employee's and companies. For this, labor and management should find the cooperate each other for various aspects which consist labor conditions.
