In modern society, labor disputes in which labor and social issues are mixed
have increasingly been compounded due to fast economic growth and an
increase in the number of unionized laborers, and there is a growing gap
between rich and poor. Accordingly, laborers increasingly demand a fair
distribution and more welfare benefits. The purpose of this study was to
examine the ideology of laborer-oriented industrial welfare and the nature of
industrial welfare as social welfare, and to provide some information on
offering more extended services to individual laborers and their families,
securing more excellent workers and improving their potentials,
competitiveness and life satisfaction. It's basically meant to make a
contribution to the competitiveness of businesses and the nation on the
assumption that a welfare society and a welfare state couldn't be built
without paying attention to welfare of laborers and their families, namely
industrial welfare, in today's sophisticated industrial society, as the creation of
a welfare society and welfare state and sustainable high growth backed up
by economic development are the requirements of the present times.
