South Korea files charges against perpetrator of ”tying up” migrant workers to forklifts... Unpaid wages to 21 workers also uncovered

The Ministry of Employment and Labor (MOEL) announced that a foreign migrant worker working at a factory in Naju, South Jeolla Province, was being bullied after being tied to a forklift.
The Ministry of Employment and Labor (equivalent to Japan's Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) has filed charges against the perpetrators on suspicion of violating the Labor Standards Act.
The incident occurred in February, and the Ministry of Employment and Labor confirmed that the suspect, a worker on-site, tied a migrant worker, a Sri Lankan national, to a forklift and used physical force against him.
The Ministry of Employment and Labor has filed charges against B on suspicion of violating the Labor Standards Act and has announced that it will take measures to prevent workplace bullying.
The company was ordered to pay 3 million won (approximately 320,000 yen) in fines. During the labor inspection process, a total of 290 cases were discovered, including Mr. A and 21 other current and former employees (including eight foreigners), who were not paid statutory allowances.
The Ministry of Employment and Labor also uncovered 12 violations of the law, including long working hours and failure to disclose working conditions, and issued a correction order.
If the factory does not correct the situation within the deadline, the government will file charges against the employer and begin legal proceedings. The Ministry of Employment and Labor also announced that, in accordance with the Foreign Employment Act, the relevant workplaces will be barred from employing foreign workers for up to three years.
However, the Ministry of Employment and Labor has confirmed that only Mr. B was involved in the alleged group bullying of Mr. A by migrant worker groups.
