1
We proclaim that women workers rights are human rights that
should not be inflicted or ignored, and seek an equal society
where women are not discriminated based on gender, where reproductive
labor is socialized, where labor divisions based on gender
are abolished, where maternity protection is respected and
where women's rights to work through their life are protected.
2
We will fight for abolition of patriarchy in the society and
commercialization of sex. We will fight for emancipating women
workers from subservience, isolation, pessimism, victimization
and help them stand up as an independent power of the society
and as active partners in building equal society.

We will work for organizing women workers in Korea into an
independent power in the society. We will focus on empowerment
of women working as part-timers, contact-based employees and
dispatched workers, whose job securities are highly unstable.
4
We will make the SWTU into a democratic and independent organization
that is wide-open to its members, and gives joy and happiness
to them. The SWTU will become an organization where women
workers enjoy self-respects and self-achievements. For that
purpose, we will respect women workers' lifestyle, sentiments
and ability before everything else in every activities of
the union, such as making decisions, holding conferences,
collective bargaining and collective activities, promotions
and cultural events.

We will fight for achieving women workers' rights at the workplace
to make equal and human-faced working conditions for women
workers. The SWTU will fight for achieving basic labor rights,
equal payments, maternity protection, eradication and prevention
of sexual violence, prevention of occupational disease, making
women-worker-friendly workplace.
6
We oppose to the logic of competition and the logic of capital
that caused structural high unemployment in many countries
and support human-faced economy as an alternative to it. We
believe that human-faced economy eventually bring forth a
community, where the rights of the unemployed and the socially
isolated are protected, where economic justice is realized,
where diversity and equality are guaranteed and where every
member can enjoy high quality of life.
7
In solidarity with workers and groups who want to change the
world, we will fight for abolition of all kinds of discriminations,
abolition of social problems, prevention of any kind of war,
root-out abuse or infliction on human rights, and eventually
for world peace.
