What should I look for in a Korean employment contract?

Check the wage, working hours, weekly holiday allowance (주휴수당), break times, job duties, contract period, and severance terms, and always insist on a written contract and keep a copy, which is your legal right. Watch for vague overtime clauses or anything that ties your status unfairly to the employer. If you're underpaid or in a dispute, call the Ministry of Employment and Labor at 1350, where foreigners get the same help.
