Disability Rights Guarantee Act Passes National Assembly Plenary Session

Bills related to the Disability Rights Guarantee Act and Activity Support Option have passed the National Assembly's plenary session. With this passage, the Disability Rights Guarantee Act has been newly enacted, and the disability community has welcomed it as a significant achievement after 10 years.

Additionally, as legislative demands to abolish the exception clause for calculating the minimum wage for severely disabled individuals grow, voices calling for the guarantee of labor rights for disabled people have become louder.

Furthermore, issues concerning wages for activity support workers on Sundays and measures to strengthen the management and supervision of activity support institutions were also discussed.
