(d) Markets:
(1) Whether the requirements for receiving new employment promotion grants are satisfied
According to Article 18 of the former Employment Insurance Act, Article 22-2(1) and [Attachment 1] of the former Enforcement Decree of the Employment Insurance Act, a new employment promotion subsidy is paid to an employer who takes measures for employment security in order to promote employment of those who are difficult to find a job under the ordinary conditions of the labor market. According to the “employment period for each person eligible for a new employment promotion subsidy”, a business owner shall employ a person under 29 years of age who is unemployed in excess of the period of three months counting from the date of applying for job-seeking to an employment security office or any other institution prescribed by the Ordinance of the Ministry of Labor, as the insured, and shall pay a person under 29 years of age who is unemployed in excess of the period of three months counting from the date of applying for job-seeking to the employment promotion office or any other institution prescribed by the Ordinance of the Ministry of Labor. The issue in the instant case
(2) Whether Nonparty 1 and 5 were in a state of unemployment
According to Article 2 subparagraph 3 of the former Employment Insurance Act, the term "employment" means a state in which a worker who is an insured worker is in a state in which he/she is unable to work despite his/her intention and ability to work. On the contrary, "employment" means a state in which he/she is ordinarily engaged in work or self-employed by labor contract, contract, delegation, etc., regardless
Based on such concept, examining whether Nonparty 1 and five other persons were unemployedly employed during the instant training period, the following facts revealed. ① Nonparty 1 and five other persons received the instant training as the status of prospective unemployed workers under the condition that no labor contract was concluded between the Plaintiff and the Plaintiff company. In light of Article 27(1)2 of the former Enforcement Decree of the Employment Insurance Act, an employer who is eligible for workplace skill development training is currently not employed, but has no agreement with the employer regarding the pertinent training period, and the employer has an intention to be employed in the pertinent business or related business after completion of the training period, and the employer of the pertinent business has no choice but to be deemed to have completed the training course on the premise that it would constitute an agreement on the working conditions, such as salary, etc. for the pertinent training period, and thus, the Plaintiff Company may refuse to receive the new training for the instant training period, and it can be deemed that the Plaintiff Company was obligated to finally receive training allowances for the pertinent period of employment promotion from the Plaintiff Company.
Therefore, the defendant's disposition of this case on the premise that the non-party 1 and the non-party 5 did not remain unemployed during the training period of the prospective employment-to-be worker in this case is unlawful, and the plaintiff company's assertion pointing this
3. Conclusion
