FAQ 54Operator answerPosted Oct 5, 2026
Do marriage immigrants receive minimum wage and weekly holiday pay if they work?
Machine-translated from Korean. Check numbers and agency names against the original.
We accept them.
The Labor Standards Act and the Minimum Wage Act apply to everyone working regardless of nationality or residency status.
The minimum wage for 2026 is 10,320 won per hour.
If the average weekly working hours for 4 weeks are 15 hours or more, and all scheduled working days are paid for that week, the weekly holiday allowance is applied.
However, for agriculture and livestock farming, the law does not include weekly holiday regulations, so paid holidays are only received if the contract specifies paid holidays.
The same applies to part-time jobs.
