Samsung Workers Protest Chairman After Failed Negotiations
News summary

Leaders of the National Samsung Electronics Union (NSEU) protested outside the home of Samsung Chairman Lee Jae-yong after unsuccessful wage negotiations, which followed a strike that began on July 8. Initially intended as a three-day protest, the strike has now been extended indefinitely amid ongoing disputes over pay and benefits. While Samsung reports that production remains unaffected and has posted record profits, union representatives warn of potential long-term impacts on semiconductor processing. The union's recent talks with management ended without agreement, prompting calls for accountability from Lee Jae-yong, who has been criticized for prioritizing high-profile events over labor discussions. The NSEU's bargaining rights may soon be challenged, raising concerns about the sustainability of their strike efforts. Union members plan to collaborate with civic groups to elevate the labor dispute into a broader social issue.
