Samsung employees in South Korea have initiated a historic three-day strike, led by the National Samsung Electronics Union, to demand higher wages, improved working conditions, and transparency in performance-based bonuses. This strike, involving around one-fifth of Samsung's workforce, marks the first general strike in the company's history and could impact semiconductor chip production, a crucial sector for South Korea's exports.
Despite the strike's focus on salary increases and additional annual leave, analysts anticipate minimal disruption to chip production due to the high level of automation. The strike highlights a shift in employee loyalty and poses a challenge for Samsung in maintaining its workforce's satisfaction and productivity amidst global competition.
