Unless they ban job interviews this bill probably will not have the desired effect:
An opposition legislator has proposed a bill to eliminate discrimination during the recruitment process of companies based on appearance.
Rep. Han Jeoung-ae of the New Politics Alliance for Democracy (NPAD) proposed on Wednesday a revised bill aimed at prohibiting companies from asking job applicants to specify information unrelated to their capabilities and skills in their resumes.
The proposed bill stipulates that requiring information such as a job applicant’s photo, properties owned or parents’ profession will result in a fine of up to five million won, or roughly 44-hundred U.S. dollars. [KBS World Radio]
