A Chinese human resource agency is openly advertising its recruitment of North Korean workers for both domestic and multinational corporations, despite U.N. sanctions aimed at stopping Pyongyang from using overseas labor to fund its nuclear program. The Beijing-based Norihsoft, which translates to Beiruan Labor Service, claims to specialize in the dispatch of North Korean workers and advertises end-to-end outsourcing services, including recruitment, screening, training, performance evaluation, remuneration, benefits and health and safety. The company lists major international corporations such as Toyota and Siemens among its clients, alongside large Chinese institutions like Tencent, Alibaba, the Bank of China and the © Korea Risk Group.
