Anyang industrial accident attorney, please answer.

Hello. This is an Anyang industrial accident attorney.

If you have been laid off as the company you worked diligently for a long time has closed down, I imagine you must have been very surprised.

Especially in a situation where you are responsible for your family, the shock of being terminated must be even greater.

In such cases, you should carefully examine whether the company's layoff was conducted legitimately or whether it constitutes wrongful termination because it failed to meet the legal requirements.

There are several conditions for being recognized as wrongful termination.

First, if the termination itself was carried out without legitimate reason, or even if a layoff is conducted for management reasons, if the termination was made without meeting the requirements set by law, it constitutes wrongful termination.

Conversely, if the worker themselves has serious attributable reasons, the termination is recognized as legitimate.

If, after reviewing the above conditions, it is judged to constitute wrongful termination, you can first apply for relief at the Regional Labor Relations Commission.

It must be applied within 3 months from the date of termination, and the Labor Relations Commission can restore the worker's rights through reinstatement orders or monetary compensation orders.

If you object to the decision of the Regional Labor Relations Commission, you can request a re-examination at the National Labor Relations Commission within 10 days.

If relief through the Labor Relations Commission is difficult, you can also file a confirmation of nullity of termination lawsuit through an Anyang industrial accident attorney.

If the court recognizes the termination as unfair, you can receive a reinstatement order or a judgment for compensation for wages not paid during the termination period.

Judging wrongful termination and subsequent response is not an easy process, so please feel free to contact an Anyang industrial accident attorney whenever needed.
