In recognition of her expertise in labor and employment matters, Ms. Lee has served or is currently serving as a public interest committee member in charge of adjudication at the Seoul Regional Labor Commission, a disciplinary committee member of the Seoul Regional Employment and Labor Office's Ordinary Disciplinary Committee, and an audit committee member of the Human Resources Development Service of Korea.
