Employment and Labor Relations in South Korea and Taiwan
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the employment relations practices in South Korea and Taiwan. South Korea and Taiwan have slowly progressed towards becoming countries with high industrialization and have become significant players on the world markets. Within each country however exists slightly different aspects of employment and labor relations which have led to the satisfaction or dissatisfaction of their employees. In South Korea, labor struggles exist between the state, the family run conglomerates called chaebols and the labor unions. Although South Korea provides competitive employee packages, the conflict between the three groups has led to a recent general strike and relations were further inflamed in 1996 when the government passed legislation which would allow more strength on the behalf of the employers not the workers. Taiwan, on the other hand also has family run businesses and labor unions but the state’s participation is a large aspect of their employment relations and industrial success. Because of this cooperation between the three groups within the employment sector, the workers in Taiwan are provided with education, health and social services as well as enjoying some of the most competitive salaries and benefits in Asia and employment relations remain positive.

Forcing Change in Chinese Manufacturing Sweatshop Conditions
[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper discussing alternatives for effecting change in Chinese manufacturing practice. The paper discusses three alternatives: international pressure from the WTO; Congressional import embargoes; and pressure from US retailers selling Chinese-made goods. Pressure from the WTO should be undertaken, but only as a long-term plan for improvement. Because China now is a member of the WTO, the US is prohibited by GATT 1994 Articles XI and XIII from imposing discriminatory prohibitions of Chinese goods into US markets. Consumer boycotts of large companies selling Chinese-made goods, however, is an effective measure that can have the most immediate results. Companies such as Gap, Nike and Toys “R” Us have come under such consumer pressure that they now police the contract manufacturers they use to ensure that the goods that they sell do not originate in Asian sweatshops.
