In addition, it is reported that the Democratic Party plans to discuss in the Supreme Council on the 13th the promulgation of the ‘Law on Business Penalty for Serious Accidents’, which is emerging as a cooperation between the Justice Party and the popular power. However, according to multiple party leaders on the 12th, it is difficult to lead to the “adoption of the party argument” demanded by the world of work. It is said that the opposition of the working-level team, including internal representative Kim Tae-nyeon and Han Jeong-ae, chairman of the policy committee. A key official from Lee Nak-yeon’s side also expressed a negative stance, saying that this is “prematurely” the ‘meeting of representatives of the three parties’ related to the Law on Business Penalty for Severe Accidents proposed by the Party of the Justice.

Even within the Democratic Party leadership, there are criticisms that “it is undesirable to withdraw the Law on Business Penalty for Severe Accidents, which the party leader directly emphasized,” and “the Democratic Party is steadily backtracking on the progressive agenda with the movement to relieve 3% of the fair economy. ” Comes out.

“Recently, there is a tendency to overlook companies”

Several party leaders confirmed in the day’s conversations that “I don’t know if it will be a formal agenda in the Supreme Council tomorrow, but there will be discussions about the enactment of the Law on Business Penalty for Severe Accidents.” However, unlike the statements of the chairman of the Democratic Party, Lee Nak-yeon, “(The adoption of the argument of the party in the Law of Corporate Punishment for Severe Accidents) will not be such a difficult problem” (11), the opinion that the adoption of the party argument will be difficult.

Mr. A, an official from the Democratic Party leadership, said: “There is a situation where there are disagreements within the party on the enactment of the Law on Punishment for Businesses with Serious Disasters” and “Would you like to spend tomorrow by the process of coordination of opinions through the Supreme Council “. He said, “At first, CEO Lee Nak-yeon made a strong commitment to the corporate punishment law for severe disasters, as mentioned in a bargaining organization speech, but the internal representative is expressing a negative position.” He noted: “Recently, the Democratic Party has to raise a question about the tendency to bypass business or turn conservative.”

Earlier, in a speech by the representative of the bargaining organization in September, CEO Nak-yeon Lee said: “Every year about 2,000 workers are sacrificed in the industrial field. Such misfortunes must now be avoided.” “The legislation of the Basic Law of Life Safety and the Law of Punishment for Serious Accidents is the beginning. He had professed:” Please make an effort by the competent standing committee to do it quickly. “However, in a recent media interview, CEO Lee took a step back and said: “We can discuss the Law on Punishment for Companies with Serious Disasters in the Occupational Safety and Health Law.” In the Democratic Party and the policy committee, instead of promulgate a new Law on Punishment for Serious Accidents, the existing Occupational Health and Safety Law is revised to impose fines on managers.

Another member of the Democratic Party leadership, Mr. B, said: “At present, it seems difficult to adopt the party’s argument of the Law on Business Punishment for Major Accidents. Although the Party’s Policy Committee is exchanging further advances with the Ministry of Employment and Labor that the previous revision of the Occupational Safety and Health Law, companies with serious disasters “It is inevitable that there will be a great difference between the intensity of the punishment and the enactment of a separate punishment law,” he criticized.

Mr. C, a member of the Democratic Party leadership, said, “I can’t help but consider complaining that companies are too tough.”

Representative Lee Nak-yeon is also in the position that it is difficult to adopt the party argument of the Severe Accident Business Penalties Act. A key representative on the representative side said in a phone call that “the party’s position has not yet been clearly settled” and “it is not easy to decide as the party’s argument.”

The official also showed a negative position on the meeting of the Democratic Party, the power of the people and the representatives of 3 parties of the Justice Party in relation to the Law of Corporate Punishment for Severe Accidents proposed by the executive director of the Justice Party , Kim Jong-cheol, that day, saying: “The alignment within the party comes first.” He said: “Currently, the Party is receiving a joint proposal for the Serious Accident Punishment Law (Representatives Park Ju-min and Woo Won-sik). He said:“ We will meet if we can go to the review of the law (sanan law). ) or not.

The Corporate Punishment for Severe Accidents Act is a law that strengthens the responsibilities of employers by imposing criminal penalties and punitive damages on managers of companies in which serious industrial accidents, such as death, have occurred. Previously, the Justice Party discussed the severe accident corporate punishment law in June, which introduced criminal penalties such as imprisonment for at least three years and punitive damages equal to 3 to 10 times the amount of damages to companies and business owners. and related public officials in which a serious disaster occurred Initiated. Discussions in the National Assembly, which had been slow, were hastened by Kim Jong-in, chairman of the People’s Power Emergency Response Committee, who met with the Justice Party on the 10th and displayed a progressive attitude, saying : “We must cooperate as the first party” in the Law of commercial penalties for serious accidents.

The Democratic Party, which felt the pressure, even took action. The Business Severe Accident Penalty Act, announced by Democratic Party lawmakers Park Ju-min and Woo Won-shik, announced on the 11th that it provided a four-year grace period for workplaces with fewer than 50 employees, but criminals such as imprisonment for two years or more and a fine of 500 million won or more. It is similar to the Justice Party plan in that the punitive damages compensation system was eliminated at least five times the amount of punishment and damage.
