In addition, the Democratic Party, the government and the Blue House have decided to strengthen social safety nets to protect essential workers, such as couriers.

To this end, the acceleration of the application of occupational accident insurance for essential workers is also planned.

Let’s go to the National Assembly. Reporter Choi Ah-young!

Today, the government office has proposed mandatory worker protection measures. What specific measures are included?

[기자]

Yes. First, let’s start with the concept of essential worker mentioned by the Party Administration.

It refers to couriers, delivery men, and environmental sanitation workers who cannot take a break even in disasters like Corona 19.

Until now, there have been criticisms that his job reality is weak.

The party administration devised a countermeasure today.

In the first place, it was decided to promote the application of occupational accident insurance.

In particular, for workers to subscribe to occupational accident insurance, they must be recognized for the ‘exclusivity’ that more than half of their income is generated in the same workplace.

Essential workers have been in the blind spot of industrial accident insurance because of this weakness.

Therefore, the government office decided to abolish the “exclusivity” standard for industrial accident insurance for next year.

The policy is to promote the application of all national insurance for occupational accidents by exclusion only in unavoidable cases.

Additionally, we are planning to upgrade the system to abolish the workers’ compensation insurance exclusion claim system for essential workers.

Along with this, it was decided to add solidarity workers and substitute items to the essential workers announced by the government last month.

The party and the government set a budget of 1.8 trillion won next year for countermeasures for essential workers.

This time, we will also see the situation of the National Assembly.

After yesterday, Minister Choo Mi-ae was present for the budget review, right?

[기자]

Yes. The National Assembly is reviewing the budget for next year for non-economic ministries on the second day.

The purpose is to review the budget, but the focus was on the special activities expenses of Minister Choo Mi-ae and President Yoon Suk-yeol.

Even today, the power of the people raised the level of counterattack against the controversy over the costs of special activities of the prosecution raised by Minister Chu.

Park Sang-ki, former Minister Cho Kuk, asked me to investigate the details of the use of special activities expenses and asked for data.

Therefore, Minister Chu understood that it was executed normally and blocked the offensive which was a matter that ended after undergoing a parliamentary agreement review.

On the contrary, approximately half of the expenses of special activities of the Supreme Prosecutor’s Office were arbitrarily executed.

The Democratic Party appears to target Attorney General Yoon Seok-yeol and Auditor General Choi Jae-hyung in the afternoon consultation.

The prosecution is expected to raise its voice of suspicion that the manipulation of the Wolseong Unit 1 assessment is being investigated by saying that it is an investigation for political purposes.

Amid the political battles, the Budget and Accounting Committee has completed the departmental review to this day.

Starting next week, the budget review subcommittee will be held and the budget increase and decrease will be reviewed.

So far, the National Assembly has handed it over.
