This study is desgined to identify employ status of golf caddies in the Korean golf industry and to provide possible recommendations according to a judgement standard of workers defined in the Korean Labor law. In Korea, golf caddies are regarded as “independent contractors under the Korean labor law.” Unfortunately, since golf caddies in Korea are not considered as workers, they are not protected by law from an unfair treatment, unequal opportunity and employment, sexual harassment, and injuries. That is, there is limited options to get compensation. therefore, the Labor laws can be reconsidered, modified, or applied broadly to the labor market for independent contractors, golf caddies. First possible recommendation is that a judgment standard of workers defined in the Korean Labor law should be broadened to include the independent contractors, golf game assistants. Second, the term workers defined in the Labor Standard Act and the Trade Union &Adjustment Act is not identical. Third, while maintaining the traditional distinction between a worker and a non-worker under the Labor law, some minimal protections such as Industrial Accident Compensation Insurance or social security program should be applied to golf caddies.
