Could you proofread my writing for me? :) My client asked us whether the company pay for wages to employees during the leave of absence. I answered as below; could you edit or proofread my answer? I very appreciate in advance for your answer => As you may aware that, leave of absence can be divided into two types according to the Korean Labor Law. The first type is ‘Statutory leave’, and the second type is ‘Contractual leave’. In case of contractual leave, these leaves are set at the company’s discretion; therefore, whether the leaves have to be paid, it has to be decided by the Company. => Meanwhile, in case of statutory leave such as maternity leave, paternity leave, it varies what kind of leaves it is as below: 1) Maternity Leave (Total 90days) Paid - In principle, during the Maternity leave, the company shall pay the wage for the first 60 days of leave period. (In the case of an employee with twins or more, an employer pays wages for the first 75 days.) The employment insurance fund covers the wages for the remaining days of maternity leave. - However, in case of your company is applied for “Preferentially Supported Enterprises” which are listed in the table 1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Employment Insurance Act, the Employment Insurance Fund covers the wages for the whole 90 days. In such a case, the maximum amount of wages covered by the Fund for the 90 days is 6 million Won (2 million Won for 30 days). If an employee’s monthly wage is higher than the maximum monthly wage covered by the fund, the employer should pay the balance for the first 60 days. 2) Paternity Leave - In principle, during the paternity leave, the Company shall pay 100% of his ordinary wage as well. - However, as mentioned earlier, your company is applied for “Preferentially Supported Enterprises” if the employment insurance period is at least 180 days, employment insurance will cover up to a certain amount of those wages for the first five(5) of the 10 days. Employment insurance covers up to 382,770 won in wages paid for paternity leave. If the five days of ordinary wage is higher than the maximum employment insurance coverage, the employer pays the rest.

My client asked us whether their company pays wages to employees during leave of absence.

=> As you may be aware, leave of absence can be divided into two types according to the Korean Labor Law. The first is ‘Statutory leave’, the second is ‘Contractual leave’. In the case of contractual leave, these are set at the company’s discretion; therefore, whether the leave has to be paid is to be decided by the Company.

=> Meanwhile, in the case of statutory leave, such as maternity leave and paternity leave, whether or not wages are paid during leave varies depending on the specific leave type as shown below:

1) Maternity Leave (Total 90days) Paid

- In principle, during Maternity leave, the company will pay the wage for the first 60 days of the leave period. (In the case of an employee with twins or more, an employer pays wages for the first 75 days.) The employment insurance fund covers the wages for the remaining days of maternity leave.

- However, in case your company has applied to become a 'Preferentially Supported Enterprise' (listed in the table 1 of the Enforcement Decree of the Employment Insurance Act), the Employment Insurance Fund covers the wages for the whole 90 days. In such a case, the maximum amount of wages covered by the Fund for the 90 days is 6 million Won (2 million Won for 30 days). If an employee’s monthly wage is higher than the maximum monthly wage covered by the fund, the employer should pay the balance for the first 60 days.

2) Paternity Leave

- In principle, during paternity leave, the Company shall pay 100% of his ordinary wage.

- However, as mentioned earlier, if your company is a 'Preferentially Supported Enterprise', the employment insurance period is at least 180 days, employment insurance will cover up to a certain amount of those wages for the first five(5) of the 10 days. Employment insurance covers up to 382,770 won in wages paid for paternity leave. If the first five days of ordinary wages is higher than the maximum employment insurance coverage, the employer pays the rest.

Thanks, Joshua :) it really helped me a lot. Thanks again, hope you have a great day!
