On the 15th, the Human Rights Committee of 14 national local governments, including Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Gwangju and Chungnam, issued a statement: “The government implements the recommendations of the Human Rights Commission for the direct employment of companies in power generation, and the National Assembly quickly enacts the Law of Punishment for Companies with Serious Accidents. Do it, “he urged.
The committee said: “The anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on December 10 was the day that a young worker who worked as a non-regular worker at the Taean Thermal Power Plant died terribly.” “I was very impressed by the work environment of the subcontractors of the power generation companies, who did not even observe the safety rules of“ Two People and 1 Team ”.
“Outsourcing the danger was revealed as the cause, and the ‘Kim Yong-gyun Law’ was passed by the National Assembly. However, as the saying goes, ‘The Kim Yong-gyun Law without Kim Yong-gyun’, all the deaths at the power plants were contract workers, “he said. The Occupational Safety Investigation Committee (Kim Yong-gyun Special Assistance Committee) issued 22 recommendations, including direct employment, and the government announced a ‘plan to strengthen the safety of the power generation industry’, but the state or the treatment of subcontractors has not changed until now, a year later. The danger continues. “
The committee said: “Survivors who lost their families due to industrial accidents submitted a bill promulgating the corporate punishment law for severe disasters to the National Assembly in September with the consent of 100,000 people through a national petition. “. There is a penalty clause for the CEO. However, contrary to the sincere wishes of the bereaved families, the bill did not pass in the ordinary National Assembly, and bereaved families are urged to enact a law and are trying to look forward to the National Assembly. “
“We (the committee) strongly urge the National Assembly,” he urged, and “immediately enact a law on corporate punishment for severe disasters to guarantee the right to work safely in all workplaces.”
Regarding the issue of direct employment of coal-fired power plants, the Commission said: “On the second anniversary of Kim Yong-gyun, the National Human Rights Commission recommended that the government ‘direct the employment of outsourced workers engaged in essential maintenance of coal-fired power plants’ “. The council welcomes and actively supports the recommendation of the Human Rights Commission to eradicate “risk outsourcing”. The Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance and the five power generation companies should not delay any longer and implement the recommendations promptly. “
