Thousands of Samsung employees have gone on strike, halting production at the company’s manufacturing facilities, in a protest against the company’s compensation package. The three-day walkout, which began on Wednesday, is the latest development in an ongoing dispute between the tech giant and its workers.
According to Son Woo-mok, head of the National Samsung Electronics Union, the strike is a response to the company’s failure to meet the workers’ demands. The union has been negotiating with Samsung for a better compensation package, but the talks have so far been unsuccessful.
The strike has brought production to a standstill at Samsung’s facilities, and it remains to be seen how the company will respond to the workers’ demands.
