strictly opposed to the formation of unions, saying he would never allow them until

00:00:23,920 –> 00:00:27,719
I have dealt over my eyes.
It may be recalled that Samsung Electronics had

00:00:27,760 –> 00:00:31,679
its first workers union formed in the
late twenty ten. Routers reported that at

of people, said Samsung’s Electronics is
one of the world’s largest out phone meccas

16
00:01:00,640 –> 00:01:03,880
and also one of the only companies
globally to produce high end memory chips used

for generative AI, including top of
the line artificial intelligence hardware from industry leaders

18
00:01:07,480 –> 00:01:11,400
such as in media management. At
the firm, the world’s biggest producer of

19
00:01:11,439 –> 00:01:15,439
memory chips, has been locked in
negotiations with the union over wages and benefits

20
00:01:15,480 –> 00:01:19,599
since January bog The two sides have
felt now their differences. Lee iron Cook,

21
00:01:19,840 –> 00:01:25,280
vice president of the National Samsung Electronics
Union, self Friday’s collective action was

22
00:01:25,519 –> 00:01:29,280
largely symbolic, was it’s a beginning. We have plans for follow up strikes

23
00:01:29,319 –> 00:01:34,079
if the management is not willing to
communicate with ospokenly litoned AFP. The union

24
00:01:34,159 –> 00:01:38,000
is not rolling out an all out
general strike. Union healths on Movemak added

25
00:01:38,000 –> 00:01:42,680
that day first strike Assamum Electronics was
taking place through the use of paid leave,

26
00:01:42,879 –> 00:01:47,079
and it is understood that many employees
are participating. It’s difficult to provide

27
00:01:47,079 –> 00:01:49,359
an exact number, but from what
I’ve said of the workplace attendance in the

28
00:01:49,400 –> 00:01:53,439
morning, there is a significant difference
from the usual, he said. Samsung’s

29
00:01:53,480 –> 00:01:59,079
Electronics said it has been diligently engaging
in negotiations with the union and will continue

30
00:01:59,079 –> 00:02:02,079
to do so, and that there
is no impact on production and business activities.

31
00:02:02,480 –> 00:02:06,879
The pen league usage rate on Friday
was lower than that of June fifth

32
00:02:06,920 –> 00:02:10,000
last year, which, like June
seventh, was sandwiched between a public holiday

33
00:02:10,039 –> 00:02:14,599
and the weekend, the company said
in the statement. Around time, workers

34
00:02:14,599 –> 00:02:19,120
held a protest in front of Samsung’s
mental office and sold on Friday chanting respect

35
00:02:19,199 –> 00:02:23,000
level. Samsung’s Electronics is the flagship
subsidiary of South Korean giant Samsung Group by

36

I found, the largest of the
family controlled conglomerates that DOMINATEUE business in ages,

37
00:02:27,520 –> 00:02:30,360
fourth largest economy. The company has
offered workers a pear high of five

38
00:02:30,400 –> 00:02:35,680
point one percent this year. The
union told AFP on Friday that it is

39
00:02:35,719 –> 00:02:39,120
willing to positively review that offer if
Samsung also provides an additional day of annually

40
00:02:39,280 –> 00:02:45,319
and transparent performance based bonuses. Taiwan
Len’s market research fund traindforcern that the strike

41
00:02:45,360 –> 00:02:49,280
would not impact drum and NAMP flash
production, nor would it couse any shipment

42
00:02:49,319 –> 00:02:53,599
shortages. Salsung accounts for a significant
chunk of global output of the high end

43
00:02:53,639 –> 00:02:57,840
chiefs. But the strike involves headquarters
employees, not workers on the production lines.

Trenfors sent in a report Finally,
Fast rely heavily on automated production and

45
00:03:01,639 –> 00:03:07,759
require minimum human label. Therefore,
the strike will not have any substantial impact

46
00:03:07,759 –> 00:03:10,439
on the future memories supply, the
report said. Even so, the strike

47
00:03:10,479 –> 00:03:15,560
carries historical importance since Samson resisted unionization
and engaged in union Boston for so long.

48

The Lariitically, professor of Korean Studies
at the University of Costlo tom afp

49
00:03:21,560 –> 00:03:24,639
He says the collective action showed that
there is a gradual tendency towards empartment of

50
00:03:24,719 –> 00:03:30,199
label in South Korea. Some Some
Electronics avoided the unionization of its employees for

51
00:03:30,240 –> 00:03:34,960
almost fifty years, sometimes adopting fuercial
tactics, according to critics, while rising

to become the world’s largest smartphone and
semiconductor manufacturer, Samson founder ly By On

Chow, who made in nineteen eighty
seven, was elevantly opposed to unions,

54
00:03:43,840 –> 00:03:46,599
saying he would never allow them until
I have that over my eyes. The

55
00:03:46,719 –> 00:03:51,800
first level union at Samsung Electronics was
formed in the late twenty tens. In

56
00:03:51,919 –> 00:03:54,800
twenty twenty, Lee Jay Young,
the companies then vice chairman and the founder’s

57
00:03:54,840 –> 00:04:00,240
grandson, apologized to everyone who has
been paid by label issues at some song,

58
00:04:00,520 –> 00:04:03,919
added few would make sure the company
is not criticized for union free management.

59
00:04:04,479 –> 00:04:09,479
Still, the National Salsum Electronics union, which has around twenty eight thousand

60
00:04:09,560 –> 00:04:13,000
members, or more than a fifth
of the company’s total workforce, has said

61
00:04:13,039 –> 00:04:17,120
the word strike has been a double
word at the tech giant union reputy letne

62
00:04:17,160 –> 00:04:21,000
afp that the strike would lead to
instruction in production and we don’t want it

63
00:04:21,040 –> 00:04:25,240
to lead into one. We just
want some song to hear our voice,

64
00:04:25,399 –> 00:04:28,800
he said. Semiconductors are the light
world of the global economy, used in

65
00:04:28,879 –> 00:04:32,439
everything from kitchen appliances and mobile phones
to cars and weapons. They assault Korea’s
