Further, the case involves important issues on labor relations over: (1) whether a collective agreement that allows special employment opportunity for the family of a person died of industrial accident is ineffective, as it restricts the freedom of employment and passes down job position; or (2) whether the agreement should remain valid as it was signed autonomously by the parties based on the goodwill of the company with the intention of being responsible for the family of the deceased employee. ¡Û The whole proceedings of the hearing will be made public: proceedings of the justices, arguments by attorneys representing parties to the case, examination of reference witnesses, etc. ¡Û Summary of Issues [Hearing Schedule] ¡Û Time: Approximately 120 minutes starting from 14:00 ¡Û A summary on issues by the chamber, arguments by issues, questions and answers among the attorneys representing the parties and reference witnesses will be proceeded. ¡Û Visitor’s guide to hearing ¡Û Broadcasting, etc. |
