Abstract

Since January 1, 2023, the “Act on the Prevention of Human Trafficking and Protection of Victims” has expanded the concept of human trafficking to protect and support victims such as labor exploitation, sexual exploitation, and prostitution. The law recommends the use of human trafficking identification indicators along with human trafficking education to detect crimes such as human trafficking and identify potential victims. Therefore, this study attempted to review human trafficking identification indicators and discuss improvement measures for effective use at the time when the law was enforced a year later. To this end, a survey was conducted on 150 employees of the National Police Agency, the Prosecutor's Office, the Ministry of Employment and Labor, and the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, which recommended the use of legal identification indicators, and the contents of the collected data were classified and analyzed. Through the study, the necessity of mandatory identification education and expanding the target, digitizing reporting and identification indicators, subdividing identification indicators for each target, and reorganizing other systems was discussed.
