HOT ISSUE on simplified procedures for rehiring foreign workers.

The government has simplified procedures for rehiring foreign workers.

The Ministry of Employment and Labor said Tuesday that beginning next month firms that want to rehire a foreign worker after three years of employment can apply to do so seven days before that employee's contract is up. Currently, firms must apply for rehiring 45 days prior to the contract termination date.

Under the nation’s regulation on reemployment, foreigners that have entered the nation under the foreign work permit system can work in South Korea for three years. Firms can extend the stay of foreign workers for a period of less than two years if they chose to rehire them.

Mga Kabayan,

The simplified procedures for rehiring foreign workers as reported by the KBS World Radio ay

para lamang po sa mga BAGONG dating na EPS, kung saan ang knilang contract ay 3 years

lamang, meron po silang extension mula sa kanilang huling employer na 1 year and 10months.

Kung sakaling hindi ka na i-renew ng employer mo after 3 years, balik po kau ulit sa first

procedure ng application sa Pilipinas.



Q: Possibility to reenter Korea after completion of reemployment period?


Many foreign workers who complete reemployment period ask us whether or not they may reenter Korea again as an EPS worker.

Please refer to our reply as follows:

According to Article 18 (2) of the act on foreign workers' employment,ect(Restrictions on Employment), a foreign worker who has left afer having been employed in Korea shall not be reemployed, if six months has not passed since the date of his/her departure.

So after reemployment, during your working period, due to unavoidable reasons, if you have to come back to your country, after 6 months, you may take employment procedures from the begining, taking KLT, again.

As a result, if an Korean employer chooses you among many candidates on job roster as a worker through job-maching done by the job center, you may enter Korea.
