One woman takes on Hyundai

Ms. Park has been employed as a contract worker at Hyundai Motor for 14 years. In 2009, she started to be sexually harassed by a group leader and a manager. When she complained to the company, Ms Park was suspended for six months, then her pay was cut, and ultimately she was dismissed for ‘tarnishing’ the company’s image.

While Ms Park has won her case in court, Hyundai refuses to take responsibility as Ms. Park was a contract worker. Ms. Park is now holding a sit-in struggle in front of the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family for more than 150 days. For more information and solidarity click here.
