Tower Palace move-in helper announcement hot topic
A job posting seeking helpers for the Tower Palace in Dogok-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul is controversial. Netizens were strongly divided between those who said the salary was lower than expected and those who said it was okay.
Recently, a job posting for ‘Dogok Tower Palace move-in helper’ was posted on Carrot, a used goods trading app. According to the notice, if you work from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, you can receive a monthly salary of 3.8 to 4 million won, and if you work six days a week until Saturday, you can receive 4.5 million won a month.
Author A said, “I am looking for someone who can move into Dogok Tower Palace. I have a 3-year-old and a 40-day-old newborn. The older child is looked after by the mother, and I am looking for someone who will mainly take care of the newborn.” He explained, “We will give preference to those who have experience caring for newborns, and we hope that those who will be with us like family will apply.”
This article spread across various social networking services (SNS) and became a hot topic. Some netizens who saw this expressed opinions that the salary is low compared to the intensity of labor, such as “Money is not the issue. I think it is right for parents to look after the child even if it is difficult,” and “The salary is not that high.”
On the other hand, there were also positive responses such as “The salary is higher than that of a manager at a small and medium-sized company” and “I think an annual salary of 50 million won is fine, but I want to do this.”
Recently, in response to the problem of lack of domestic helpers, the government has begun to promote pilot projects. The Ministry of Employment and Labor announced that discussions on a pilot project for domestic helpers with the Philippines have been completed and that 100 domestic helpers will be recruited in the Philippines within this month. They are expected to enter the country in July and be deployed to the Seoul area as early as August. The Ministry of Employment and Labor plans to make detailed adjustments to the policy operation direction after conducting a six-month pilot project.
