ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to socially clarify the direction of strategic activities of major committees in Economic, Social & Labor Council and enhance the purpose of related actors by linking the core tasks of social dialogue demanded by our society and the activities of major committees. This paper summarizes our research on the restructuration of social dialogue since September 2017 and practical activities on its preparatory process, with the combination of core tasks of social dialogue and the direction of Council activities. According to our study result, the social dialogue in Korea now in a transitional period will distinguish consultation, concertation and bargaining as it progresses. Moreover, the main direction of the new social dialogue body is to ‘institutionalize social inclusion’ in order to overcome social polarization. Therefore, the activities of agenda, industry and social classes committees are to expand the participation of the vulnerable group and increase the representation of the labor union group (actors). The agenda enlargement and spatio-temporal extension (contents) can also contribute to the development of social dialogue with the substantial development of the trans-enterprise level of social dialogue (form).
