Samsung Seeks Court Order to Halt Illegal Strike Activities by Unions
Samsung Electronics has requested a court to block illegal strike activities by its unions amid a wage dispute that could disrupt operations at the world's top memory chipmaker. The unions plan to strike for 18 days starting May 21 if a wage deal is not reached, potentially affecting half of Samsung's semiconductor output in Pyeongtaek. The dispute centers on pay gaps with rival SK Hynix and performance pay caps.
