i thought this was useful, from a different thread:


Article 32 (Advance Notice of Dismissal)

* (1)An employer shall give an advance notice to a worker at least thirty days before dismissal(including dismissal for managerial reasons). If the notice is not given thirty days before the dismissal, normal wages for more than thirty days shall be paid to the worker, except in cases where it is impossible to continue a business because of natural disaster, calamity, or other unavoidable causes, or where a worker has caused considerable difficulties to a business, or damage to properties on purpose.
* (2)In the case of the proviso of paragraph (1), the approval of the Minister of Labor shall be obtained regarding the causes attributable to a worker.

If you are illegally fired (without 30 days notice) you can file with labor and win 30 days backpay.
