Although migrant workers have emerged as a major force throughout Korean industry, they are often alienated by disadvantageous labor conditions as well as social discrimination as a whole. Social workers in the work-place can themselves utilize the micro and macro procedures of assisting troubled newcomers.

Bien que les travailleurs immigrés en soient venus à occuper une place prépondérante dans l'industrie coréenne, ceux-ci se trouvent souvent aliénés parce qu'on leur impose des conditions de travail désavantageuses et sont victimes de discrimination. Les travailleurs sociaux en milieu de travail peuvent s'impliquer personnellement à travers des procédures micro et macro afin de venir en aide à ces nouveaux venus en difficulté.

Aunque los trabajadores migratorios en la industria coreana se han convertido en una fuerza importante, a menudo están alienados, son discriminados socialmente, y trabajan en condiciones laborales desventajosas. Los trabajadores sociales en los lugares de trabajo pueden utilizar procedimientos micro y macro para ayudar a los recién llegados en sus problemas.
