Suwon Conducts Special Guidance and Inspections of Employment Agencies

Suwon City will conduct special guidance and inspections targeting 312 employment agencies within the city throughout June to eliminate various irregularities arising from employment introduction activities.

The city will visit inspection sites to focus on cracking down on illegal employment introduction practices including excessive fee collection, unlicensed employment introduction, job placement for minors, and arranging for sexual services.

When necessary, joint inspections with police will be conducted, and when violations are detected, the city plans to take measures including referral for prosecution and penalties against the relevant businesses.

Additionally, through employment agency training, the city plans to correct and supplement issues discovered during this inspection to the fullest extent. The city also plans to conduct a selection evaluation of high-quality employment agencies to promote more sound and transparent employment agency operations.

A city official stated, "Through thorough guidance and crackdowns on employment agencies within the city, we will do our best to protect the livelihoods of ordinary citizens and establish a sound and transparent employment order."
