Frequently asked questions
How is annual leave earned?
At workplaces with five or more regular employees, workers with under a year of service earn one day for each month of full attendance (up to 11 days). Attending at least 80% over a year earns 15 days, and from the third year one more day is added every two years, up to 25 days.
When am I entitled to severance pay?
If you worked continuously for at least a year and averaged 15 or more hours a week over four weeks, you receive at least 30 days of average wages for each year worked. It is in principle paid within 14 days of leaving.
What if I haven't decided whether to quit?
Severance and remaining leave help you decide when. Whether to leave is a different question. Use Find what's blocking your decision to see what is holding you back first.
These explanations are general guidance. Amounts and eligibility can change each year — confirm with Work24 (고용24) or the Ministry of Employment and Labor.
