In the end, the Commission concluded that institutional improvement was needed to reduce low-income jobs and to mitigate bipolarization in the labor market. The NHRCK paid attention to the promotion of labor human rights of the low-wage workers, and to the prevention of unjust competition by the employers who take the advantage of low wages. The Commission recommended the Minister of Employment and Labor to take necessary action against those employers who gave wages lower than the level prescribed by the Minimum Wages Act. What was recommended include: restriction of access to the Work Net, a job-seeks information system operated by the Ministry of Employment of Labor; deferring payment of support allowance from the employer-supporting fund of the employment insurance who contributes to employment stabilization; and giving penalty points in the process of selecting successful contractors for government service work. In addition, the Commission issued a recommendation to the Minister of Strategy and Finance in this regard. In the recommendation, the Commission also asked the Minister to give penalty points in the process of selecting successful contractors for government service work. In response, the Ministry of Employment replied that the Ministry had put in various efforts to put in place the minimum wage level requirements. The Ministry cited, for instance, supervision of workplaces, various reporting channels, promoting awareness through private-government cooperation. The Ministry of Strategy and Finance Chapter 1.
