You keep 100% of your fee.
LaborMap does not take a referral, matching, settlement, transaction, or revenue-share fee from the work introduced through the roster.
Translator/interpreter roster
Help foreign workers in Korea through independent language support.
LaborMap is building a vetted roster of linguists for introductions only. Workers and linguists agree scope, fee, and payment directly; LaborMap takes no referral fee or share.
Introduction model, not employment.
This follows the same structure as LaborMap's certified labor consultant introduction path.
The worker contracts with you.
Scope, fee, schedule, payment, and any travel or urgent-work terms are agreed directly between you and the worker.
You are free to accept or decline.
Roster registration is non-exclusive. You use your own tools, set your availability, and may decline any introduction without penalty.
Priority languages.
Each language is shown as available only after at least two vetted linguists are ready.
First roster build
Vietnamese, Chinese, Khmer, Nepali, Indonesian, Thai.
Second expansion
Burmese, Uzbek/Russian, Tagalog/English, Sinhala, Bengali.
Additional coverage
Mongolian, Urdu, Kyrgyz, Lao, Tetum/Portuguese, Tamil.
Possible work and boundaries.
The roster supports communication and faithful language work. It does not turn linguists into legal advisers or representatives.
Possible introductions
- Translation of worker-written fact statements, complaint drafts, messages, contracts, or documents.
- Phone or in-person interpretation for Labor Office calls, interviews, or support-center contacts.
- Native review of LaborMap website content after a separate paid request.
Required boundary
- Translate and interpret faithfully; do not add legal arguments or result promises.
- Do not pressure workers to hire any professional or present an outcome as guaranteed.
- Protect worker personal data, delete materials after the job, and never share with immigration, employers, or third parties without consent.
Pricing policy is a roster condition.
For LaborMap-sourced introductions, transparent pricing protects workers and keeps the roster credible.
Follow the published price policy exactly.
No hidden fees, undisclosed add-ons, post-hoc price changes, charges outside the published range, or pressure tactics are allowed. Travel, urgent work, rare-language scarcity, or unusually complex documents must be explained before accepting the work and separately agreed by the worker.
Example suggested ranges: phone interpreting around KRW 70,000 per 60 minutes; in-person interpreting from around KRW 300,000 per 3 hours plus transportation; document translation quoted by length and difficulty.
Screening and onboarding.
Written take-home translation is not the default test because AI use is hard to detect. Live interpretation is a better first filter.
