What Is the Korea Workplace Harassment Damages Calculator?

This calculator estimates damages for workplace bullying and workplace sexual harassment in Korea. It reviews subtype, severity, duration, perpetrator position, number of perpetrators, repetition, company response, secondary damage, health damage, employment status, evidence, remorse, victim fault, medical cost, salary, and leave period.

The English UI calls the Korean workplace-harassment damages function. It preserves base consolation ranges, duration and position multipliers, company-response multipliers, health additions, lost income, penalty exposure, litigation cost, and industrial-accident eligibility screening.

Important Note

Workplace harassment claims depend heavily on evidence. Messages, recordings, witness statements, HR reports, medical diagnosis, leave records, payroll records, transfer or dismissal documents, and retaliation evidence should be preserved early.

Damage Components

Component	Inputs used	Result effect
Base consolation	Bullying or sexual-harassment subtype and severity	Starting emotional-damage amount
Multipliers	Duration, position, count, repetition, company response, remorse, victim fault	Increases or decreases consolation amount
Health damage	Depression, anxiety, PTSD, hospitalization, suicide attempt	Adds health-damage factor and industrial-accident relevance
Economic damage	Medical cost, monthly salary, leave period, employment status	Adds treatment cost and lost income
Penalty exposure	Company response and secondary damage	Models administrative or criminal penalty exposure

Company Response Matters

Appropriate investigation, separation, and protection can reduce employer exposure.
Inadequate response, neglect, or retaliation can increase damages and penalty risk.
Retaliatory dismissal, transfer, intensified harassment, or pay cut is treated as secondary damage.
Sexual harassment and workplace bullying use different statutory penalty logic in the Korean model.

Industrial Accident Link

The Korean function separately evaluates industrial-accident eligibility. Mental-health diagnosis, serious symptoms, evidence level, and connection to workplace conduct are key.

A civil damages claim, workplace complaint, labor-office route, and industrial accident claim can proceed in parallel, but each requires different documents and deadlines.

FAQ

Why does the calculator ask about company response?

Under Korean workplace-harassment rules, the company response can affect both civil damages and penalty exposure, especially where retaliation or neglect is alleged.

Can I claim lost income while still employed?

Yes, if leave, reduced work, unpaid absence, or medical treatment caused income loss. The model uses salary and leave period to estimate that component.
