  • This study is about the availability of Chinese internal arbitration institutions by Korean invested companies. Generally, Chinese internal arbitration institutions lack independence from government. However, because parties seeking an arbitration award have ways to get neutrality from internal arbitration institutions that guarantee party autonomy, these Korean companies can use Chinese internal arbitration institutions to resolve disputes in China. Special attention should be given to the following. First, because Korean companies invested in China are legally in the same position as Chinese companies, unless foreign-related factors intervene, when disputes occur with Chinese companies or individuals, the disputes correspond to internal dispute, and when it comes to choosing the arbitration institution, these Korean companies must choose either a Chinese internal arbitration institution or foreign-related arbitration institution. Second, most Chinese internal arbitration institutions still lack independence from government, which can influence the fairness of arbitration in the future. Therefore, Korean companies invested in China should think about alternative ways to get a minimum impartiality in arbitration cases. Third, the parties are allowed to choose arbitration rules freely in Beijing, Xian, Chongqing, Guangzhou, and Hangzhou arbitration commissions. Therefore, in arbitration cases, the parties can get impartiality by choosing arbitrators according to the arbitration rules which they agree on, or by choosing partially modified arbitration rules of those arbitration commissions. Fourth, in order to get an impartial arbitration award from Chinese internal arbitration institutions in China, it is important for Korean lawyers or arbitration experts -- fluent in Chinese -- to be registered in the List of Arbitrators of Chinese internal arbitration institution by way of signing a MOU between the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board, or the Korean Association of Arbitration Studies and arbitration commissions such as those of Beijing, Xian, Chongqing, Guangzhou, and Hangzhou which comparatively do guarantee party autonomy. Fifth, because application of the preservation of property before application of arbitration is not approved in China, in practice, in order to preserve property before application of arbitration, it is best to file another suit in China based on other legal issue (e.g., tort) independent from the contract which an arbitration agreement is applied to. Sixth, in arbitration commissions which allow different agreement regarding arbitration procedures or arbitration rules, it is possible to choose a neutral arbitrator from a third country as a presiding arbitrator via UNCITRAL arbitration rules or ICC arbitration rules. Seventh, in the case of Chinese internal arbitral award, because the court reviews the substantive matters to decide the refusal of compulsory execution, the execution rate could be relatively lower than that of foreign-related cases. Therefore, when Korean companies invested in China use Chinese internal arbitration institution, they should endure low rate of execution. Eighth, considering the operational experiences of public policy on foreign-related arbitration awards so far, in cases of Chinese internal arbitration award, the possibility of cancellation of arbitral award or the possibility to refuse to execute the award due to public policy is thought to be higher than that of foreign arbitral awards. Ninth, even though a treaty on judicial assistance in civil and commercial matters has been signed between Korea and China, and it includes a provision on acknowledgement and enforcement of arbitral award, when trying to resolve disputes through Chinese internal arbitration institution, the treaty would not be a big help to resolve the disputes, because the disputes between Korean companies invested in China and the party in China are not subject to the treaty. Tenth, considering recent tendency of conciliation by the arbitral tribunal in China and the voluntary execution rate of the parties, the system of conciliation by the arbitral tribunal is expected to affect as a positive factor the Korean companies that use Chinese internal arbitration institution. Finally, when using online arbitration, arbitration fees can be reduced, and if the arbitration commissions guaranteeing party autonomy have online arbitration system, the possibility of getting impartial arbitration award through them is higher. Therefore, the use of online arbitration system is recommended.

  • 이 논문은 대표적인 불안정 노동자 직군에 속하는 건설 노동자에 대한 호주의 어워드 임금 체계와 사회보장제도를 분석하고 한국에 대한 시사점을 도출하는 데 그 목적이 있다. 호주는 19세기 후반 격렬한 노사분쟁을 겪은 후 노사갈등을 예방, 해결하기 위한 노사정 중심의 중재위원회를 구축하고 이를 토대로 어워드라는 고유한 임금 체계 및 사회보장제도를 운용하고 있다. 어워드는 공정노동위원회라는 중재위원회에서 결정되는 임금 체계로서 전후 자본주의의 황금기에 고임금을 유지하고 경제성장을 견인해 내는데 중요한 요소로 작용했다. 신자유주의 개혁 이후 그 역할이 축소되었지만, 호주의 건설 노동자들은 여전히 높은 수준의 최저임금을 유지하고 있고 어워드 임금 체계가 직업교육훈련과 숙련 관리체계와 연계되어 있다는 점에서 시사하는 바가 크다. 신자유주의 개혁과정에서 시장경쟁을 이유로 고임금=유효수요창출이라는 전통적 케인스주의적 정책적 목표가 수정되었고 그에 대한 반발을 누그러뜨리려 의무 퇴직연금과 공공 건강보험과 같은 보편적 복지제도가 도입되었다. 한편, 건설 노동자와 같이 이동성과 불안정성이 높은 노동자들을 위해 어워드 임금 체계를 통해 장기근속 유급휴가와 퇴직급여라는 이동식 급부가 제공되고 있다. 호주의 숙련 수준이 낮은 건설 노동자의 사회보장 부담률은 우리나라의 평균 건설 노동자의 사회보장 부담률과 비슷한데 노후소득의 소득 대체율이 월등히 높다는 점에서 우리에게 주는 시사점이 있다.
