On the morning of the 24th, the representative of the Democratic Party, Kim Tae-nyeon, visited the agricultural growth of the Justice Party in front of the main office of the National Assembly, demanding the enactment of the law of corporate punishment for severe disasters, and is talking to Kim Mi-sook, president of the Kim Yong-gyun Foundation, the mother of the late Kim Yong-gyun, who is on a fasting campaign.

The government draft of the Law on Corporate Punishment for Serious Accidents (Serious Accident Law) was presented to the National Assembly on the 28th.
For workplaces with more than 50 employees and less than 100 employees, it is established that the application of the law will be delayed for two years and the amount of damages will be reduced to less than five years.
The name of the government proposal was also different from that proposed by a member of the Democratic Party. The name of the bill initiated by a member of the Democratic Party is “Punishment Act for Corporate and Government Directors for Serious Disasters.” The proposal presented by the government is the ‘law of punishment for companies and managers in charge of serious disasters.
The heads of central administrative agencies and local governments were excluded from the “management manager” subject to the law. Corporate directors were limited to those in charge of safety and health matters.
In the event of a fatal accident, the manager was imprisoned for two years or more, or a fine of 50 million to one billion won. According to criticism that the legal punishment was excessive, there was a ceiling on fines within the government.
The amount of damages was also 5 times or less. Justice Party legislator Eun-mi Kang (more than 3 times more than 10 times less damage) and Democratic Party legislator Park Ju-min (more than 5 times).
The trial period and targets for the implementation of the bill have been increased.
Representative Park Joo-min suggested suspending enforcement of the law for four years for workplaces with fewer than 50 employees, but the government proposed a two-year grace period for workplaces with 50 or more and less than 100 employees. The Justice Party is taking a negative position on the suspension of law enforcement, which is expected to backfire.
A Democratic Party official said: “The government’s proposal is not a one-time proposal, and it will be reviewed by so-called 29 for reference.”
The late Kim Yong-gyun’s mother, Kim Mi-sook, and the father of the late Lee Han-bit policeman, Yong-gwan, urged that the bill be handled and, together with the Representative of the Justice Party , Kang Eun-mi, have been fasting in front of the main office of the National Assembly since the 11th.
Elders of the society, such as Father Ham Se-woong and Monk Myung-jin, held a press conference in front of the Blue House fountain on the 28th and urged the president and the National Assembly to enact laws.
Father Ham said: “It is an order of the times to enact a major disaster law to save the brothers and sisters and sons and daughters who lost their lives in the labor field.”
