What the document holds

PIWPA Enforcement Decree as amended by Presidential Decree 34783 (in force 7 Aug 2024), full consolidated text, addenda, reason statement. Programme content: KRW 3 billion reward cap removed (art. 22(2)), lawyers assisting internal whistleblowers paid by the ACRC with clawback rules (arts. 6-2, 6-3; no amounts), up-front payment up to 50% reworded (art. 23(2)), information on damage-causers for relief recourse (art. 27-3). Schedule (30%-4%), KRW 300,000 minimum and KRW 500 million award cap restated (recorded from the 2023 version). Already in the data: cap abolished. Added: an event from the decree for the cap removal. Out of scope throughout: the commission's organisation and complaint handling, protection procedures and their deadlines (60-day protection decisions, 7-day objections, etc.), penalty schedules (fines for negligence 과태료, non-compliance charges 이행강제금, surcharges on fraudsters 제재부가금), employment limits and citizen audit requests. Intermediate bands of the reward schedules are not separate rows (only top and bottom rates, as earlier passes did); the 1,000-won rounding rule is not recorded. Rules restated from other sources are now recorded from this document too (decision 8).
