CHAPTER 4
RECOMMENDATION AND SOLUTION
![Page 24: Migration south korea](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103020/55ce7ba6bb61eb30498b46a4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
EPS For Less-skilled Migrant Workers
The less-skilled foreign labor policy in South Korea has five basic principles: 1. The supplement of the domestic labor market. 2. The prohibition of discrimination based on nationality against foreigners. 3. The principle of settlement prevention.4. Guarantees of transparency in the recruiting process of foreigners and anti-corruption.5. Preventing the hindrance of the industrial restructuring.
Highly-skilled Foreign Labor Policies With Visas
The South Korea government showed preferential treatment towards highly-skilled or professional migrant workers by enforcing certain immigration regulations upon only blue-collar migrant workers. Unlike blue-collar migrant workers, there were no quotas on the amount of visas issued to professional migrant workers.

Special Immigration And Settlement Policies For Highly-skilled Migrant Workers
The south korea government, hoping to attract “global talent professionals” for the “brain gain” dimension in korea, actively developed special immigration and settlement policies that supported professional migrants.
1. Programs offering special privileges regarding immigration including the gold card and the science card.
2. Program issuing job search visa.
3. E - visa program for global talent (hunet KOREA).
4. Point system for settlement.
5. Citizenship policies.

Immigration Policy Change: Triggering The Flows Of Female Migrants Into The Care Market.
- In the area of foreign labor and immigration policies for ‘unskilled’ ( bee-jeonmooniik ) migrant workers, the South korea government has shifted its approach from A highly restrictive to A more inclusive one (lee, 2008), in order to relieve the growing labor shortage in low-paying jobs in the korean labor market, especially in farming, fishery, manufacturing, and service industries.
- Although the korean society has experienced increasing flows of foreign labor workers since the end of 1980s 37 it was not until 1993 that the korean government accepted foreign labor through the formal immigration channel.
Employment Permit System
- According to the ministry of labor, South korean employers who wish to employ migrant workers must prove that they are not able to find local workers despite the efforts of the job security agency; the employer may apply for a permit to employ migrant workers.
- The employment support center of the ministry of labor recommends a number of foreigners, who fit the requirements set by an employer, from the list of foreigners seeking jobs, and the employer selects the qualified people from those recommended.

The outcomes of policy changes- Implementation of employment permit system from
2004 is proven to be one the effective ways to reduce the number of illegal foreign workers in south korea based on the statistic changes.
- By allowing foreign low-skilled workers to work full time in local industry, the number of unauthorized leaved by industrial trainees are reduced.
- After many years of struggle by korean NGOs in fighting for the migrant worker’s right, korean government finally came to the decision by accepting foreign workers to work in the local industries with “worker” status.
