Micron Technology Union in Taiwan Votes Overwhelmingly for Strike Authorization
Workers at Micron Technology’s Taoyuan facility in Taiwan have authorized a strike with an overwhelming vote of 99%, as tensions over profit-sharing continue. The union, representing nearly all members who voted (1,994 out of 2,258), is seeking a permanent system that allocates 15% of the company’s operating profits to employees. Despite previous mediation attempts and recent pay incentives announced by CEO Sanjay Mehrotra for fiscal year 2026, no agreement has been reached. The union plans a rally on October 19 in Taipei but hasn’t set an official strike date yet. A potential surprise walkout remains possible if negotiations fail. Micron’s operations in Taiwan are critical to its business, with the region accounting for most of its DRAM production and nearly half of its long-lived assets. The Taoyuan plant is a key site, but larger facilities like Taichung have yet to vote on strike action.
