The rapid rises in Korea's minimum wage apparently have more people working fewer than 15 hours a week.<br />This is especially true in wholesale and retail... as well as the food and lodging industries.<br />A report by the Korea Labor Institute released Sunday shows the number of people clocking less than 15 hours a week... climbed last year by more than 11 percent compared to the previous year to 756-thousand people.<br />That's nearly four-percent of Korea's entire work force.<br />The report says employers are giving these workers fewer hours to avoid having to pay certain extras.<br />Korean labor law says people working more than 15 hours a week are entitled to extra pay every week worth one working day. <br />
