Samsung Electronics' labor union in South Korea has announced its first-ever strike following stalled wage negotiations. This unprecedented move marks a significant shift for the company, which historically suppressed labor activities under its late leader Lee Kun-hee. The strike is scheduled to take place on June 7, 2024, and involves a union that claims to represent a quarter of Samsung's workforce. This development adds to the challenges faced by South Korea's largest company as it seeks to recover from setbacks in its semiconductor business.
