For fair wages for migrant workers
Migrant workers and members of the South Korean Coalition for Anti-Discrimination Legislation march in front of the National Human Rights Commission of Korea in central Seoul, Monday. They protested wage discrimination against female migrant workers at public institutions, saying the Multicultural Family Support Centers under the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family apply different income standards and provide low salaries to female immigrants employed as translators and bilingual instructors in comparison to their Korean coworkers.
