Officials from the National Federation of Non-Regular School Workers shout slogans at a press conference to declare a general strike for primary care workers in the Democratic Union in Jung-gu, Seoul, on the morning of the 5th. Yunhap news
Primary care workers go on strike for one day for six days. They are calling for the withdrawal of the All-Day Care Act, which strengthens the responsibility of local governments to care, and the transition to 8-hour full-time work.
Education authorities are planning to fill the care gap with the voluntary support of the director and deputy director and the use of village care institutions, but the inconvenience of families relying on primary care classes such as double income seems to be inevitable. .
The National Headquarters of Education and Public Service, the National Union of Non-regular School Workers (Union of School Expenditures) and the National Union of Women (hereinafter, Solidarity of School Expenditures) held a press conference on the 5th and announced that they will hold a general strike by primary care workers on the 6th.
More than half or more than 6,000 of the 12,000 full-time care workers nationwide are expected to participate.
They urged the withdrawal of the bill, saying that the ‘All Day Nursery Act’ promoted by the government and politicians could transfer the main body of primary care to local governments to entrust care to the private sector, which It could lead to poor treatment from dedicated caregivers.
They also demanded that full-time solidarity workers, who are mostly 4- to 5-hour part-time workers, become 8-hour full-time workers.
The education authorities used dedicated caregivers who did not participate in the strike and requested that management teachers, such as principals and assistant principals, voluntarily support the care.
The classroom teachers instructed each school to actively use the village care agency if they could protect the children in the classroom or even if they could not afford it.
Education authorities asked parents to forgive them for not using the primary school childcare classrooms this day unless absolutely necessary.
However, it seems inevitable that an affective gap is inevitable, centered on single-parent, low-income and dual-income families who have no place to leave their children.
Articles containing complaints related to the care strike continue on the Internet ‘Mom Cafe’ and local communities. A netizen said: “What is different from a medical strike? It is too difficult to attack when children are held hostage by children. It is too difficult to attack because of the crown on purpose. I do not understand why job insecurity arises when transferring the local government”. There were also opinions such as “I hope that people who are isolated and do not have work are selected to work” and “How many people are striving to become a public service for the school expenses union”.
In addition, there were many negative reactions to the claim of 8 hours full time, “Why do you ask for full time after several hours of taking care of yourself in the afternoon. You enter knowing the working conditions, but if you leave the union behind”, ” I came as a part-time contract, but what is the treatment of official public servants?
