Temporary school workers are going on the largest general strike since Corona 19 today.

During wage negotiations with the education authorities, the National School Non-regular Workers Union Conference decided to hold a one-day strike, arguing for the resolution of wage discrimination against regular workers, the preparation of comprehensive measures for lung cancer in lunchrooms, and opposition to the reduction of educational subsidies.

The organizers estimate that 80,000 people will participate in the strike, and about 50,000 people will participate in the strike competition held in Yeoui-daero, Seoul.

School non-regular workers, also called educational officials, are those who are not civil servants among workers working at institutions and schools at each level. no see.

Organizers believe student cafeteria workers and care workers will be the most involved in the strike.

The solidarity meeting also held a one-day strike on December 2 last year, which resulted in the suspension of meals at 1,020 schools, or 8.2% of 12,403 schools, and the operation of care classes in about 200 schools.

This time, as the scale of participation has expanded from last year, more schools are expected to experience disruptions in meal service.

The education authorities said they plan to implement alternative meals and shortened classes to prevent disruptions to the operation of educational sites, and to mobilize teaching staff.
