브레이크뉴스 정민우 기자= 국내 500대기업의 고용인원이 지난해 6700명 넘게 줄어든 것으로 나타났다.
K-뷰티 열풍으로 수혜를 입은 CJ올리브영과 반도체 특수를 누린 SK하이닉스가 지난해 2000명 이상 고용을 늘린 반면, 희망퇴직을 단행한 LG전자와 점포 매각을 진행 중인 홈플러스는 1000명 넘게 고용을 줄였다.
11일 CEO스코어에 따르면 매출액 기준 500대기업 중 분할·합병 등이 있는 기업을 제외한 476개 기업을 대상으로 국민연금 가입자 기준 고용 현황을 조사한 결과, 이들 기업의 고용인원은 지난해 12월 기준 162만5526명으로 전년 동기(163만2255명)보다 6729명(0.4%) 감소했다.
조사 대상 기업 중 지난해 고용이 증가한 기업은 222개사(46.6%)였고, 이 가운데 74.3%(165개사)는 100명 미만의 적은 증가폭을 보였다.
전년 대비 1000명 이상 고용이 증가한 기업은 △CJ올리브영 △SK하이닉스 △한국철도공사 △삼구INC △쿠팡 등 5개사였다.
이 중 가장 많이 증가한 기업은 CJ올리브영으로, 2518명(21.1%)이 늘어났다. CJ올리브영은 K-뷰티 시장 성장에 따른 브랜드 수요 증가와 점포 확대로 매장과 인력을 크게 늘렸다.
그 다음은 2188명(6.9%) 늘린 SK하이닉스였다. SK하이닉스는 반도체 경기 회복과 수요 증가로 신규 설비 투자를 위한 R&D 및 제조 인력을 대폭 늘렸다.
전년 대비 1942명(8.3%) 늘어난 한국철도공사는 세번째로 높은 증가수를 보였다. 2022년 정부 공공기관 인원 감축 계획 발표 이후에도 고용이 지속적으로 증가세를 보였다.
이어 △삼구INC(1266명, 10.5%↑) △쿠팡(1096명, 9.8%↑) △비바리퍼블리카(929명, 87.1%↑) △아성다이소(645명, 5.3%↑) △앰코테크놀로지코리아(638명, 8.7%↑) △LIG넥스원(617명, 13.6%↑) △삼양식품(432명, 19.1%↑)이 고용증가 ‘톱10’에 들었다.
증가율이 가장 높은 기업은 비바리퍼블리카(87.1%, 929명↑)였다. 비바리퍼블리카는 금융 플랫폼 ‘토스’의 운영사로, 종합금융그룹으로 성장함에 따라 사세가 크게 확장됐다.
다음으로 △코오롱모빌리티그룹(24.4%, 38명↑) △우아한청년들(24.3%, 348명↑) △토스뱅크(21.2%, 138명↑) △CJ올리브영(21.1%, 2518명↑) △삼양식품(19.1%, 432명↑) △크래프톤(16.4%, 291명↑) △한화에너지(15.9%, 65명↑) △엘앤에프(15.3%, 249명↑) △키움증권(14.5%, 140명↑) 등이었다.
반면, 고용이 감소한 기업은 249개사(52.3%)였다. 이 중 1000명 넘게 감소한 기업은 6개사로, △LG전자(1687명, 4.7%↓) △이마트(1340명, 5.7%↓) △홈플러스(1340명, 6.9%↓) △LG디스플레이 (1247명, 4.9%↓) △롯데쇼핑(1170명, 6.1%↓) △현대자동차(1073명, 1.5%↓) 순이었다.
또한, △DL이앤씨(936명, 17.7%↓) △LG화학(839명, 6.0%↓) △LG유플러스(837명, 8.1%↓) △롯데웰푸드(730명, 11.2%↓) 등도 감소폭이 컸다.
감소율은 48.3% 줄어든 SK에코엔지니어링(552명 감소)이 가장 높았고, △아이에스동서(28.9%, 138명↓) △DL건설(27.0%, 436명↓) △신성통상(24.6%, 220명↓) △DL이앤씨(17.7%, 936명↓) △서희건설(16.7%, 109명↓) △이랜드월드(16.2%, 510명↓) △태영건설(15.3%, 194명↓) △르노코리아(14.8%, 540명↓) △LS네트웍스(14.5%, 28명↓)가 그 뒤를 이었다. 감소율 상위 10개사 중 5개사가 건설업종으로, 시장 침체가 고용 한파로 이어진 것으로 보인다.
500대 기업을 그룹별로 보면, CJ그룹의 고용 증가가 2213명(5.7%)으로 가장 컸다. 이어 △삼구(1266명, 10.5%↑) △쿠팡(1108명, 9.6%↑) △SK(773명, 1.1%↑) △LIG(617명, 13.6%↑) △네이버(520명, 7.4%↑) △삼양식품(432명, 19.1%↑) △넥슨(411명, 7.7%↑) △한화(370명, 1.1%↑) △크래프톤(291명, 16.4%↑) 등이었다.
10대 그룹만 떼어놓고 보면, SK, 한화, 한진(128명, 0.6%↑) 외에 나머지는 모두 고용을 줄였다. LG(5341명, 4.1%↓)가 가장 많이 줄였고, △롯데(3637명, 6.5%↓), △현대자동차(1880명, 1.1%↓), △삼성(1100명, 0.4%↓), △포스코(963명, 3.2%↓), △GS(564명 감소, 3.3%↓)가 그 뒤를 이었다.

Top 500 companies lose 6,700 jobs in one year, but K-beauty and semiconductors rise.
The combined employment of Korea's top 500 companies decreased by over 6,700 last year.
CJ Olive Young, benefiting from the K-beauty craze, and SK Hynix, benefiting from the semiconductor boom, increased employment by over 2,000 last year. Meanwhile, LG Electronics, which implemented voluntary retirement, and Homeplus, which is in the process of selling off stores, reduced employment by over 1,000.
According to CEO Score on the 11th, a survey of 476 companies among the top 500 companies by sales, excluding those undergoing spin-offs or mergers, based on National Pension Service subscribers, revealed that as of December 2019, the total number of employees at these companies was 1,625,526, a decrease of 6,729 (0.4%) from the same period the previous year (1,632,255).
Among the surveyed companies, 222 (46.6%) saw employment growth last year, with 74.3% (165) experiencing a small increase of less than 100 employees.
Five companies saw employment increases of more than 1,000 employees year-on-year: CJ Olive Young, SK Hynix, Korea Railroad Corporation, Samkoo Inc., and Coupang.
Of these, CJ Olive Young saw the largest increase, with 2,518 employees (21.1%). Driven by the growing K-beauty market, CJ Olive Young significantly expanded its stores and workforce, driven by increased brand demand and store expansion.
Next was SK Hynix, with an increase of 2,188 employees (6.9%). Driven by the semiconductor industry's recovery and rising demand, SK Hynix significantly expanded its R&D and manufacturing workforce to support new facility investments.
Korea Railroad Corporation saw the third-highest increase, with an increase of 1,942 employees (8.3%) year-on-year. Even after the government announced its plan to reduce the number of public institutions in 2022, employment continued to increase.
Following this, Samkoo Inc. (up 10.5%, 1,266 employees), Coupang (up 9.8%, 1,096 employees), Viva Republica (up 87.1%, 929 employees), Asung Daiso (up 5.3%, 645 employees), Amkor Technology Korea (up 8.7%, 638 employees), LIG Nex1 (up 13.6%, 617 employees), and Samyang Foods (up 19.1%, 432 employees) rounded out the top 10 for employment growth.
The company with the highest growth rate was Viva Republica (up 929 employees, 87.1% increase). Viva Republica, the operator of the financial platform "Toss," has seen significant expansion as it has grown into a comprehensive financial group.
