💡 A Word from JobPloy
Manseonho appears to be a small-scale workplace primarily engaged in coastal and offshore fishing, especially coastal gillnet (pot) fishing. The coastal and offshore fishing sector in Korea is highly dependent on foreign workers due to a shortage of domestic seafarers and an aging workforce. It primarily requires physical labor related to boarding fishing vessels and fishing operations, and the working environment can be perceived as a 3D (Dirty, Difficult, Dangerous) industry. Foreign workers can work with an Employment Permit System (E-9) or Seafarer Employment (E-10) visa, and fishing vessels under 20 tons are often subject to the Employment Permit System. Therefore, it is important to understand the characteristics of Korea's fishing environment and foreign worker-related systems, and to be mentally prepared for physically demanding work.
