This study intends to explain the aspects and situation of social welfare in factory which is classified to ordinary factory, prized factory and non-prized factory, through the Factory Saemaul Undong by the method of questionaire.
As in well known, the history of Saemaul Undong is not long, so there are many problems in its process. Furthermore the concept of factory Saemaul Undong is not defined clearly, and it is to be developed by diverse study within near future.
Factory Saemaul Undong is an operation base of urban Saemaul Undong, and it must be developed to fit factory's character and skill.
The genuine object of Saemaul Undong is a better-life movement which came from emplyer-employee's cooperative spirit, environment improvement, strengthening employee's social well-being, productivity elevating, reduction of cost price, and neighbor-helping movement.
From the viewpoint of social welfare aspects, the conclusions of this study are as follows:
First, there are supplementary relations between factory Saemaul Undong and social welfare, and the weight of social welfare in factory Saemaul Undong is 25%, but the real situations of that are generally not sufficient. So it is urgently needed to promote the level of poor sides.
Second, there are two aspects of social welfare in Factory Saemaul Undong.
The first one is establishmental aspect, which includes domitories, apartments and company houses, dining room, resting room, library, stall, bath room, washing room, medical treatment facilities, physical exercise and amusement facilities.
The another is systematic aspect, which includes payment system, bonus system, saving system, vacation system, special night time class system, research aid funding system, factory bus system, medical insurance system, retirement allowance system, employees' stock-buying system.
But some aspects of the above-mentioned are too formal, so it is necessary to make those aspects internalized and subtantialized with mutual understanding between employers and employees.
Third, the level of prized factories is very high from the viewpoint of social welfare compared with general factories and non-prized factories. But the high level is caused by the conclusion that prized factories are generally large companies which have necessarily all those aspects. Ordinary and non-prized factories' levels are showing just similarly.
Fourth, the insufficiency of social welfare situations in Factory Saemaul Undong is due to the poor law system, the lack of understanding and concern of the employers, their conomic burden, and the company's characteristic geographical circumstances.
The way of solving those problems is to activate factory Saemaul Undong by means of supplementing the Labour Standard Law, strengthening employers' Saemaul education, making factory environment sound, and promoting interrelation between factories.
Fifth, factory Saemauel Undong is a method and a process to promote social welfare in factory, therefore the expansion of social welfare devotes to activating Factory Saemauel Undong.
