The operator of Incheon International Airport has confirmed a plan to provide job security for its short-term workers in tandem with President Moon Jae-in’s pledge to turn all public-sector nonregular workers into full-time workers.

Incheon International Airport Corporation held an event Tuesday to announce a management-labor agreement on the issue with its CEO Chung Il-young and labor representatives in attendance.

Under the agreement, around ten-thousand nonregular workers at the company will all be turned into regular workers.

In detail, around three-thousand nonregular employees who are tasked with safety-related duties such as fire prevention will be hired directly by the company, while the other seven-thousand will be hired as permanent workers by the company’s affiliates.

There will be no difference in treatment, including salaries, between those directly hired by the company and those hired by its affiliates.

The company plans to announce further details of the plan in the first half of next year.

Shortly after he took office in May, President Moon visited the company, pledging to usher in an era of “zero nonregular workers” in the public sector within his five-year term.
