ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to suggest policies on introduction and activities of fire fighting officer labor union and to provide theoretical background for introduction of fire fighting officer labor union centering on discussion over establishment of fire fighting officer labor union by covering discussion of labor union for establishment of fire fighting officer labor union and analyzing the actual condition of fire fighting officer labor union activities. This study aims to propose the following policy alternatives for introduction of fire fighting officer labor union. First, argument for introduction of fire fighting officer labor union should be harmonized with public interests and social security. Fire fighting officer labor union activities should consider the protection of citizens' life and asset and improvement of public order and welfare important. Second, it is well known that working conditions of fire fighting officers are poor and therefore the appropriateness of introduction of fire fighting officer labor union should be sought in scholarly basis such as constitutional interpretation. Third, when the need of labor union is described based on a recommendation of international organizations such as ILO, and OECD, the recommendation must be emphasized. Fourth, mature labor-management culture that places an emphasis on win-win should be created. Labor movement should be recognized as the legal fundamental human right that is guaranteed by constitution and law. Fifth, in the past, Korean society had a negative view of labor union activities such as collective bargaining and strike for improvement of working conditions due to the manipulation of public opinion by developmental dictatorship. The public awareness of labor union activities should aim for improving working conditions, developing organization and eradicating corruption after emerging from ideological approach.
