The following is a post on South Korean conglomeration the business conglomerates is the main focus of these posts they are credited with spearheading south Korea 's capital Industrialization in the past few decades . They encourage gender inequalities in the offices

The post looks at the social and cultural construction of gender in the offices of the headquarters building of Taesong ' their recruitment , job assignments , reward and social activities of men and women . In to understand gender construction in

the offices , the actors were divided into three namely the mole bourgeoisie , the male new middle class ' and the female new middle class The Bourgeoisie

Those in this group are the Korea group of male who male made gain by creating gender inequality and unequal differentiation between positions and career paths , it served as medium to legitimize paying lower salaries for work needed by the enterprise . The strategy whereby they use seniority as the main criterion for salary increase and requiring women to terminate their employment after a few years of service . The bourgeoisie were able to reduce costs by paying lower wages and benefits for the work women performed

They channeled women into lower paying , dead end jobs through different hiring process used to recruit workers . The males at Taesong were hired through semiannual nation wild campaign placed in front-page adverts in major newss . Tests and interviews were conducted to judge the prospective employees intelligence etc those successful enter at level 4 and after 6 years or thereabout get to level 1 (department ) head .

They enter at level 5 and no hope of promotion This mode of recruitment had economic implication . The salaries of their male counterpart was way higher than theirs , the male had extensive trainings which the women did not enjoy , since they had no collage degrees , this was used as an excuse to legitimize their low pay and continued stay in level 5 .All this factors brought about factions
