Question 1

What is the KGLU?

Accepted Answer

The KGLU stands for the Korean General League of Unions. We help teachers with collective bargaining agreements, crafting reports to the Ministry of Employment and Labor, contract negotiations, and filing lawsuits against abusive and exploitative bosses.

Question 2

Is it legal for E-2 visas to attend?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is no different than attending a concert. Your rights to attend and join labor unions are upheld by multiple Supreme Court and Constitutional Court rulings. Supreme Court Ruling May 22, 1998 97Nu8076 and Article 81 of the Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act cover your rights.

Accepted Answer

We will be discussing the basic labor rights of workers in Korea, the letter of release, enacting an anti-discrimination law, and the minimum wage.

Question 5

Is this event legal?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It's no different than meeting your friends at a coffee shop. There will be no election campaigning for upcoming local elections, or participation by designated "anti-state forces." To gather and talk is not a crime.

Question 6

Is there a digital or hybrid option?

Accepted Answer

Due to security concerns, this event will only be offered in-person. An online option will not be presented. If an attendee requires an accessibility accommodation, please reach out to the organizers.
