Main Issues

Whether a return disposition is appropriate without a decision of the Labor Relations Commission after the period for issuing a certificate of establishment report by the administrative agency which received a trade union establishment report expires (affirmative)

Summary of Judgment

If an administrative agency receives a report of establishment of a trade union, it shall issue a certificate of establishment report within three days, and if it fails to return or order to supplement the report within that period, it shall not be deemed that the trade union has been established even if there is no certificate of establishment report. Thus, the administrative agency may issue an order to supplement or return the report even after the expiration of that period. In addition, if it is required to supplement the report or to return it, the Labor Relations Commission’s resolution is not required. Thus, the defendant, who is the Minister of Labor, requested to supplement the report of establishment of the trade union in this case without a resolution of the Labor Relations Commission

Judgment of the lower court

Seoul High Court Decision 89Gu345 delivered on April 27, 1989

Text

The appeal is dismissed.

The costs of appeal are assessed against the plaintiff.

Reasons

We examine the grounds of appeal.

1. In light of the contents of the complaint of this case and the written application for modification of the cause of the claim on February 20, 1989 and the judgment of the court below, the court below merely judged the purport of the plaintiff's claim, but did not judge any matters different from the purport of the plaintiff's claim like the theory of lawsuit. Thus

2. According to Article 15 of the Trade Union Act and Article 8 of the Enforcement Decree of the Trade Union Act, when an administrative agency receives a report of establishment of a trade union, it shall issue a certificate of report on establishment within three days, and it is not deemed that a trade union has been established even if there is no order to return or supplement the report within that period. Thus, an administrative agency may issue an order to supplement or return the report even after the expiration of that period. In addition, Article 16 of the Trade Union Act only provides that an administrative agency shall obtain a resolution of the Labor Relations Commission only if it orders the modification or supplement of the union's regulations, and it is not necessary for the Labor Relations Commission to demand the supplement of the report or return the report. Thus, the defendant's demand to supplement the report of establishment of a trade union on December 31, 1987 without the resolution of the Labor Relations Commission and made a disposition on February 29, 198, and thus, it cannot be said that it is unlawful. Therefore, the judgment below is justified and there is no error in the misapprehension of legal principles like litigation.

3. According to the reasoning of the judgment below, the court below held that the Korea Trade Union Federation can not take the Korea Trade Union Federation as its affiliated organization because it can not take the Korea Trade Union Federation as its affiliated organization in light of the fact that the Korea Trade Union Federation is members of an industrial and the Korea Trade Union Federation and the Korea Trade Union Federation of industrial units across a national scale, and that the Korea Trade Union Federation constitutes a trade union composed of various industries and industries, such as food and industry, and 36 employees in need of food, such as Seoul, Jeonju, Suwon, Sungnam, Incheon, etc., and that the Plaintiff Union cannot be viewed as a national industrial unit since it cannot be viewed as a national industrial unit in light of the admission area or the number of its members, etc.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed, and the costs of appeal are assessed against the losing party. It is so decided as per Disposition by the assent of all participating Justices on the bench.
