Separately, they stated that the expansion of starting aids and starting tests on race days is increasing the workload of horse handlers, and the number of times racehorses are being delivered to training centers or testing grounds is rising, leading to greater risks of industrial accidents and increased labor, and that they have notified them of their refusal.On July 17, the therapists’ union submitted petitions to the Anyang Regional Employment and Labor Office (Seoul), the Busan Northern Regional Office (Pukyong), and the Gwangju Regional Office (Jeju), requesting administrative guidance on the grounds of alleged violations of the Labor Standards Act and collective agreements. Subsequently, the Busan Northern District Office issued an administrative directive stating, “Overtime without labor-management agreement violates the Labor Standards Act, so do not unilaterally implement additional work.”

he organizers say it will be a single-day horse racing event, but implementing it requires 2 to 3 weeks of preparation for on-site personnel. It is only natural for the implementing agency to present appropriate compensation plans for additional work. He said, "We will always keep the negotiation channel open and hope that the Korea Racing Authority will engage in discussions for an active resolution."Meanwhile, a Korea Racing Authority official stated, "The implementation of Chuseok horse racing was already agreed upon last year through consultations between the implementing body and related organizations. In the end, they stated, “The demands of the handlers’ union should be discussed with the trainers’ association, not the implementing authority,” and since the Chuseok horse racing event has already been announced both internally and externally, they view the implementation as a given.

In Seoul, Chairman Park Bong-cheol underwent a fact-finding investigation at the Anyang District Prosecutor’s Office at the end of July as a complainant, while fact-finding investigations are ongoing with the head of the Trainers Association and the chairman of the Korea Racing Authority as the respondents.Union Chairman Park Bong-cheol said, "Trained drivers have participated in the additional work and increased working hours following the Ferry Sewol disaster and the Noeul Racing incident, which were unilaterally announced by the Authority, without much complaint. However, the implementation of Chuseok horse racing has traditionally led to a suspension of races. Overtime work requires a collective agreement, but there was no consultation at all.

It states that the aim is to improve unreasonable regulations by reforming disqualification criteria (Article 13 of the draft).Since the beginning of the new year, the controversy over abuse of power has been spreading like a trend. Following the arrest of former Korean Air Vice President Cho Hyun-ah over the 'nut rage' incident, the recent cases of a mother and daughter at a department store forcing a parking attendant to kneel and the mass dismissal of new employees at the social commerce platform 'Wemakeprice' reveal a dark side of our society, which is desperate to seize the 'hegemony' amid an endless stream of abuse-of-power controversies.However, there is also legitimate 'gapjil.' The argument is that they must take ownership as key players in a specific industry.

On January 9, Saenuri Party lawmaker Lee Jong-bae (member of the Agriculture, Food, Rural Affairs, Oceans and Fisheries Committee) introduced a bill to amend the Horse Industry Promotion Act as the main sponsor.In the partial amendment to the Horse Industry Promotion Act, Representative Lee Jong-bae stated, “Article 13 of the Horse Industry Promotion Act stipulates that persons with mental illnesses and those addicted to narcotics and psychotropic substances are grounds for disqualification and cancellation of qualifications for horse trainers, saddlers, and therapeutic riding instructors. Disqualifications are intended to ensure that individuals meet a certain standard of qualifications for occupations or business areas that have a significant impact on the health and safety of the general public or their property, or that require a high degree of ethical standards.

In the democratic republic of the Republic of Korea, under Article 1, Paragraph 2 of the Constitution, the people have sovereignty, and all power emanates from the people. The people must be the masters. Who is the dominant force in the horse industry. As stated in Article 1, Chapter 1 of the Horse Industry Promotion Act, if the purpose of fostering and supporting the horse industry is to contribute to the revitalization of rural economies and the improvement of citizens’ quality of life, then the people, including livestock farmers who raise horses, are the ultimate stakeholders.On November 24 last year, there was a 'power-abuse disturbance" in front of the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs building in Sejong City. The National Equine Farmers Association, composed mainly of rural equestrian center officials, held a press conference demanding a comprehensive overhaul of the Horse Industry Promotion Act and related regulations, but the authorities remained silent.

In a statement, the racehorse producers’ association called for the abolition of the Korea Racing Authority’s plan, saying, “We expose the fallacies of the Korea Racing Authority’s horse racing reform proposal,” and argued that the integrated race scheduling contradicts the domestic horse revitalization policy the Authority had advocated and is a contradictory policy that seeks to advance the horse industry by relying on foreign horses.They also argued that if integrated race scheduling is implemented, domestic horses will be neglected, leading to the bankruptcy of breeders, and the last pillar supporting the Korean horse racing industry—the livestock sector—will collapse, so the Korea Racing Authority’s reform proposal must be withdrawn.

Its official name is the National Korean Cattle Farmers Association, an organization composed of licensed and unlicensed riding club officials, people interested in horses, and others who make a living from horses. Although the government even enacted laws to promote the horse industry, many contradictions are causing significant difficulties on the ground.About 150 committed individuals gathered to reflect on and resolve these issues and to continuously advance the horse industry. We aim to develop it into a purely interest-based organization that can guarantee the livelihoods of people engaged in or planning to enter the horse industry and livestock farming. We are in the process of pursuing incorporation.

Later, the government announced the legislation of the Horse Industry Promotion Act in 2011, and hopeful horse farmers registered facilities in the registry, even paying enforcement fees to meet the standards for rural equestrian facilities, in order to legalize unauthorized livestock facilities. However, the report was rejected because farmland with horse tack sheds was not converted into land for a sports facility. There is no such phrase in the Code of Laws. Due to the central government's irresponsible administration and the haphazard announcement of the Horse Industry Promotion Act, officials from several local governments, including Anseong City, Icheon City, and Yeoncheon County in Gyeonggi Province, which issued the registration certificates, were even disciplined by the Board of Audit and Inspection for violating the Local Public Officials Act.

The farmland preservation charge amounts to 30% of the individual official land price of the farmland, and while the amount is an issue, there are also situations where land use cannot be changed for various reasons. The government established standards for rural equestrian facilities that do not require high costs and switched from a permit system to a notification system, but in reality, farmland must be converted into sports facility land. Farmers are currently unable to participate in the horse industry due to laws that conflict with the purpose of the Horse Industry Promotion Act.Such complex procedures and conflicting laws have resulted in a reduction in the total number of registered riding stations. There are overwhelmingly many unlicensed riding centers. The equestrian industry can only develop by formalizing riding facilities through institutional reform as soon as possible.

If disqualification applies, the individual should be excluded from a specific occupation or business area, thereby limiting fundamental rights such as the constitutionally guaranteed freedom of occupational choice or freedom of economic activity, and the restriction should be limited to the minimum necessary. The disqualification criteria, which are defined as grounds for disqualification because they can have a significant impact on the health and safety of the public, are limited to occupations that directly treat or protect people and animals, such as doctors, veterinarians, nurses, and care workers. However, in the case of horse trainers, funeral directors, and therapeutic riding instructors, these grounds cannot be considered valid, making the restriction excessive. Similarly, although equestrian sports instructors are also a national qualification related to horses, they are not designated as grounds for disqualification, raising issues of fairness with other national qualification systems.
