Woowa Brothers, the operator of Baemin, has signed its first-ever wage and collective agreement since its founding.
On the 10th, Woowa Brothers said labor and management held a "2026 wage and collective agreement signing ceremony" on the 9th at Startup Square in Pangyo, Seongnam, Gyeonggi, and formally finalized the deal.
Attending the signing ceremony were Lee Yun-jun, head of people at Woowa Brothers, Shin Hwan-seop, chairperson of the Korean Chemical, Textile & Food Workers' Union (KCTFU) under the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), and Park Jang-hyeok, head of the Woowa Brothers chapter.
The agreement focuses on mutual growth within the delivery ecosystem, stable platform operations, and building a new labor-management relationship. In particular, it specifically defines situations that affect platform operations, such as service disruptions or disasters, and includes a clause requiring the union to actively cooperate if such situations occur even during a labor dispute.
Woowa Brothers said this reflects labor and management's shared understanding that platform stability affects customers, partner merchants, and riders alike.
Labor and management also agreed to raise annual salaries and welfare points. They will provide a one-time Baemin gift certificate worth 200,000 won to boost delivery spending.
